Family Outreach Opportunity: Gleaning for St. Lucy Project in the Northern Neck

Saturday, November 15th

On Saturday November 15th John Paul families are invited to volunteer to help GLEAN in the Northern Neck.

HERE is a link with more information about this unique and very worthwhile act of charity and corporal work of mercy to assist in feeding the hungry. The St. Lucy Project in connection with Commissioned by Christ organized the picking of the "leftovers" at various farms which they can then offer to those in need. This practice has biblical connection and is a very powerful way to help those who suffer from hunger.
