Coffee and Donuts Ministry

Adopt-A-Bed

If you have a green thumb, or if you just want the parish grounds to be attractive, you may want to consider volunteering to take special care of a section.  This is a great family project and consists of keeping an area weed and trash free.  A coordinator is also needed.

Spring Clean-up

In the spring, parishioners get together to clean up the grounds of the parish.  Dates are announced in the bulletin and by flyer to the school and Religious Education classes.  We also rake the yards of parishioners who are elderly, ill or homebound.

Festival

Coordinators are needed for various areas including the Sunday dinner, games tent, refreshment center, food court, Bingo, finance, set up and clean up, and Vegas games, as well as many volunteers to work the event.

SCRIP

The SJV Scrip Program allows family members to purchase scrip (gift cards/certificates)  for everyday expenses such as food, clothing, gas while earning a percentage of each dollar of scrip purchased back in revenue (tuition credit).  It’s that easy!   

Contact Scrip coordinators, David and Tricia Rice at 257-9960 for more information and how to sign up. 

 

Second Best Sale
