For our third straight year, St. Rose of Lima parishioners joined the members of the Hollidaysburg Knights of Columbus in their Lenten 40 Cans for 40 Days food drive. Together we were able to collect and donate 1,730 lbs. of food and $1,000 in cash to our area food banks. Your St. Rose St. Vincent de Paul Conference would like to thank all those who contributed to this endeavor. It was a huge success! God Bless You All!

 Below is a photo of our first Care Package delivery to Family Services this year. Thank you to all who participated in this program! God Bless You!  We were so happy to spread Christmas cheer to some needy children and (their moms) this year.
Through the month of November, parishioners from both St. Rose and St. Patrick’s donated slightly worn and new hooded sweatshirts towards this worthy cause. A total of 119 sweatshirts, along with a few coats and numerous hats/beanies, scarfs and gloves were delivered to Family Services by the Conference. Thank you to all the parish members who donated to this noble cause. When we give to the poor, God indeed pours his love, peace and joy into our hearts, into our lives and into the hearts of those who are poor. God Bless You All! 
A few of our members delivered the food from St Rose's November Food drive to both Family Services and Evergreen Manor.
