Glory to Jesus Christ! We are almost at the mid-point of the Great Fast as we prepare for a glorious celebration of Pascha. During this fasting period our parish is supporting Tabitha’s House, a Christian organization dedicated to helping the needy in Harford County.  Please take a look at the attached list of items Tabitha’s House would like to make available to clients who need help with daily living, i.e. food items, toiletries, and cleaning materials.  All purchases may be deposited in the plastic box located in the fireplace at church.  We will deliver these collected items to Tabitha’s House during Bright Week after Pascha.

On our streets in Harford County, we don’t often see those who are homeless and those who are struggling financially, but they are here!  And Christ calls us to respond to their needs.  Please give generously from the bounty that God has given to you.

Below is a list of items that are in need.
