Eternal Father, we continue to lift up families in our community who are suffering. We thank you for Your people who minister to these families in their need, so they see the love of Christ in action. We pray they feel Your comfort and peace. Amen.

November and SVDP

The SVDP serves up 3 ways to help our neighbors in need this month!

• Food Drive Weekend - November 19 & 20

Non-perishable food and baby Items are collected in the vestibule for Mercy Neighborhood Ministries, Mother of Christ Church, and Pregnancy Center East.

• Bundle Sunday - November 26 & 27

An SVDP truck will be on the back parking lot after all Masses the weekend of November 26 & 27, accepting useable clothing, household goods, electronics, and other miscellaneous items. Items you no longer need may help families in our area. Receipts for tax purposes will be provided.

• Coat Drive – NOW through November

Share the warmth this winter and donate a coat to a neighbor in need. All sizes are needed, from children to adults XXL. Accepting hats and gloves too! Collection barrels are located in the vestibule of the church and in the school. 

“Schapker, whose studio is in a renovated 140-year-old building in Over-the-Rhine, is a 1992 graduate of Xavier University’s art program. Her painting and research have taken her around the world, and her work can be found at universities, churches, schools, and in numerous corporate and private collections. She has been painting representational art of Catholic icons for more than ten years and has a special devotion to the Blessed Mother. Schapker was commissioned to paint a series of paintings for Xavier University in 2011, and her painting of Pope Francis’ mother was presented to the pontiff at the Vatican in 2011.” (quoted in the Catholic Telegraph).
