**********
March 2021 -- We have just learned we are again able to make donations to the Lamb's Basket Food Pantry. We would like to start collecting items one Sunday a month and would like to start on Palm Sunday. We will place a container outside of the door and maybe as you stop by to pick up your palms you are able to drop off items. There are a lot of needs out there at the moment and it would be great for St. Bart's to again help others through this program.
 
They accept any canned or packaged food.
