Each day, members of the ministry visit local establishments that have agreed to donate unsold bakery items that would get thrown out every day unless volunteers pick them up for food kitchens. We service 19 different locations including Catholic and non-Catholic churches, Daughters of Charity Day Care, Homes for the Brave, Bridgeport Rescue Mission, and Merton House in Bridgeport.
This ministry was started to perform a Corporal Work of Mercy and to fulfill an obligation that Jesus gave us to "feed my people".
Who can volunteer?
All adult parishioners can volunteer.
Can I use it for Service Hours?
N/A
Time Commitment:
Approximately 1-1/2 to 2 hours each week.
