Part of our vision is to be a servant to others, expecting nothing in return. One way we do this is by actively serving members of our community in need
The month of March is dedicated to St. Joseph, the Patron Saint of Families and Workers. The Social Action Commission of IHM is coordinating our 2nd Annual Day of Service by working together to benefit area organizations that work with those who are less fortunate. All of these activities can be accomplished by family units of all ages working together. Prior to the event we are asking for donations of food and personal care items. On March 4, we will combine and pack these items and deliver them to area organizations
