The Social Outreach Committee was founded in 1998 for the purpose of making the parish family more consciously aware of those in need in our midst. The committee is involved with the following projects:
  • Coordinating Fall and Spring food drives to benefit our local Jonnycake Center
  • Distributing and collecting baby bottles for the Baby Bottle Boomerang for RI Right to Life
  • Organizing a reception for All Souls’ Day Mass
  • Collection and distribution of coats for Thanksgiving
  • Coat DriveChristmas Giving Tree to collect gift cards for the Jonnycake Center and St. Vincent de Paul Society
  • A Baby Shower during the month of January for a social agency that supports those who have chosen life
  • Note Cards written offering support and prayers to the St. Francis bereaved
 
The Committee usually meets monthly at 6 p.m. at St. Francis. If you are interested in joining, contact the parish office.
 

We are not called to do great things, only small things with great love.
