SUPPORT FOR SAN CLEMENTE MILITARY FAMILY OUTREACH

PARISH LENTEN COLLECTION COMPETITION

for san clemente military family outreach:

Beginning Sunday, February 21, and continuing throughout Lent,

we will be collecting basic school supplies to support the

San Clemente Military Family Outreach for San Onofre Elementary School

at the north end of the base at Camp Pendleton.

We will be collecting donations of basic school supplies such as dry erase markers, lined paper,  pencils, pens, crayons, markers and white copy paper for the Pre-K through grade 8 classrooms at the school.

Donations can be dropped off in the narthex of the church each Sunday.

Let’s fill up their cupboards!

And will continue Wednesdays, March 3, 10 and 17.

A Lenten supper will be served at 6:30 PM, just prior to the start of each session.

Adults will meet in Sillers Hall for a special program presented by Fr. Rob’s dad,

The Rev. Canon Paul Edwards:

Accessing the Presence of God In Your Life—

“The purpose of God’s presence is not to protect us from the world.

The purpose of God’s presence is to change the way we live in the world.”

This series will be comprised of the culmination of Fr. Paul’s study of God’s Presence.

It may be the last series he presents—a sure and certain “don’t miss!”

The Youth will meet in the church office conference room

for pizza and nachos

and their Youth Lenten Program: Pizza and Pondering Persona

The Children’s Lenten Program:

Pajamas, Pillows and Popcorn

OUTREACH RELIEF EFFORTS FOR HAITI:   

The people of Haiti have suffered profound and widespread damage and injury as a result of the terrible earthquake that struck the island late Tuesday.

If you would like to donate toward ERD relief efforts,

you can write a check to St. Margaret’s, with ERD in the memo line
