Our Lady of Refuge Food Pantry

“On behalf of the Wednesday shopping families at Our Lady of Refuge Food Pantry, I am extending our heartfelt thanks to all of you at Prince of Peace. You are a group of tremendously generous parishioners who have donated a total of 389 pounds of food so far to Our Lady of Refuge Food Pantry since August, 2024!  There were also many cleaning items, personal care and paper products included!
 Our Lady of Refuge volunteers were amazed to sort and shelve the volume of donations we picked up at your parish!  Our shoppers eagerly selected a variety of cans and boxes of food items, as well as, the personal care, paper products and cleaning supplies.
Many thanks, also, to Deacon Perry who helped coordinate this endeavor between our parishes.
We look forward to your continued help to feed families in need at our Food Pantry.
May God bless all of you for your kindness and care.”
 
Sincerely, 
Teresa Roose 
Our Lady of Refuge Food Pantry Volunteer Coordinator

Right to Life - Lifespan

Thank you for your support of our Christmas cards during the Christmas season. The proceeds from the cards enable us to keep our office open, and most importantly, provide programs and opportunities to those who know the importance of protecting and respecting God's most precious gift - the gift of Life. We are especially pleased that we can continue to offer programs such as Be the Change, Life Advocate Intensive and the Washington DC bus trip for our young people.  

We wish you and the people of Prince of Peace a year filled with peace and blessings from the Lord of Life.
