In the four weeks of July, parishioners generously gave: 180 floss picks, 145 razors, 112 detergent pods, 108 tissue packs, 56 bars of soap, 42 toothbrushes, 40 tubes of toothpaste, 36 lip balms, 27 washcloths, 24 deodorants, 19 floss rolls, 17 shaving creams, 15 shampoos/conditioners, 11 bodywashes…”and a partridge in a pear tree.” (Couldn’t resist.) Bountiful thanks to Aspinall, Harold/Knipe, Getman, Lipscomb, J. Miller, Neznek, Perry, Ramish, Sierra, M. Strange, Wiedemann, Willson, Wood, Woodall, and numerous anonymous donors. If you missed the drive, you can still help out, as the need continues through the year. Just go to www.samaritanministry.org/enn-2023-in-kind-list/ for details.
