The services\, sponsored by the Faith Formation Council\, will continue through Lent\, concluding on March 19th. Participants may attend as schedules allow.

Note: Items must be foam and marked with the No.6 symbol. \nWhen recycled\, these items can be processed into a material used to make park benches\, picture frames\, and other items.
