Clintonville
Resource Center
in need of
food!
Clintonville Resource Center needs food! Due to the
increasing cost of food distribution, food pantries across the
country are being hit hard.
Please bring easy to open, pull-tab cans of tuna, soup, fruit cups
and other single serving items to church for the “red bucket”
located at the entrance of the church. Peanut butter and cereal is
also needed. Individual toiletry items are a bonus this time of year
and are regularly distributed to needy families.
Please remember those that are in need and place your donation in
the “red bucket” for St. James.

ECW Annual Plant Sale
 Please
mark your calendars for Sunday, May 18th,
2008. The ECW Annual Plant Sale will be held that day following
both masses and will be bigger and better than ever! This third
week in May is the ideal time to set out your annual planters as
well as to plant herbs and perennials in the ground.
NEW THIS YEAR
- You will have the opportunity to purchase a beautiful native
perennial plant for the purpose of beautifying the St. James
Wildlife Habitat gardens and do this in memory of a loved one or in
thanksgiving for blessings received. A permanent tag will identify
your plant in the garden as well as be recorded in a special
journal.
ECW members will be at the church on Sat., May 17th
at 10:00 A.M. putting together the planters. If you have planters
that you would like to recycle, bring to the church. If you wish to
reserve a particular one for pickup on the 18th, that can be
arranged.
Proceeds of this plant sale will be put toward more renovations of
our kitchen.
