Update from Convention

Jon+ and Kate+ give us a quick update on the happenings at Diocesan Convention in Riverside this past week.

​

The Season of Thanksgiving

It's so hard to believe, but Thanksgiving is this week! And as many of you know, our Great Food program always puts on a full-on banquet the day after Thanksgiving complete with turkey, sides, pies, and so much more.
​
If you are interested in supporting our Thanksgiving feast, there are two ways you can help out. The first way would be to bring in a side dish (green bean casserole, sweet potatoes, or cranberry sauce) or a pie to the church before Thanksgiving (November 19 - November 22). Please email Margaret Ecker with what you plan to bring (mecker@stjla.org).

The second way you can support us is by making a donation to our Great Food program. This will help offset the cost of this special feast for our friends in need.
