Very nice old church and excellent mass.
Felt very welcomed
A great resource for family's or single persons. All are invited as long as you fit certain criteria. The workers have created a highly organized system that includes a sign in sheet and a two page item list. This list allows you to pick the items personalized to your needs and your household needs.
This church or organization is utilizing the church's space to help families and single persons. The list includes a variety of food items such as frozen fruit and meat to canned goods, etc. The list also offers personal items for womans health and hygiene. Items for children hygiene like diapers and / or pull-ups. The list offers household necessities such as toit paper, paper towels, laundry detergent, and other items any household may utilize. I was so relieved when I noticed the list includes some pets! Im pretty sure the list is limited to cats and dogs. (I'm not 100% sure if there was any other animal.) The food for my cat included a bag of dry food and a couple of cans of wet food.
The system that this organization uses makes the line and the whole process of receiving donated goods fast, efficient, and personalized. The people who organized this service are supper friendly, welcoming, helpful, and kind. They didn't have the size diapers I requested, so the worker told me she added two bags of diapers - one size bigger and one size smaller to make up for not having the item I selected. Which was such a relief. Not too many resources go above and beyond to ensure you leave with a feeling of content. The beginning of June was the very first time I utilized this resource. I was impressed with their system. I felt welcomed by every worker I met. At the very end, I was blessed with four bags filled. The woman who was in charge of filling my order was the sweetest and most helpful woman. Her presence and her concern to ensure I left with items I wanted. It was amazing. I didn't feel judged. I felt heard and seen. I highly recommend this resource. I don't have pictures, but the next time I go, I will take pictures of the "shopping list sheet" and the bags they blessed my family with.
One thing I did not find out was days they serve. If they have a schedule of when you can go. I also don't know if it's a once a month or two times a month type resource. I will also provide that info in my next review.
I visited this church service for the first time as an invite from my neighbor and I had a great experience with the sermon from the ministry I see myself attending again. I am new to the small town I moved to three years ago. I love it here and all that comes with it. I am from Elizabeth New Jersey It's very different in the community great thank you 👍🏾🙏🏾
I wanted to express my gratitude to Father JT and Donna for your compassion and help with laying my family to rest I was truly blessed when I spoke to father and Donna that my loved one will be at peace God Bless you all and Thank You for your tremendous kindness prayers and support
