During the month of October, the Springfield Catholic Schools are working together with Catholic Charities to help those in need in our Springfield community. The students at Blessed Sacrament have been showing their generosity by donating boxes of mac and cheese, stuffing mix, instant mashed potatoes, gravy mix, bars of soap, toilet paper, and canned goods. We are asking our great parishioners to help support our students in the Catholic Charities Food Drive Competition. Our friends at St. Agnes School have won this competition four years in a row and we are hoping that with your help Blessed Sacrament School will win this year. You can help by donating non-perishable goods or by providing a monetary donation to Catholic Charities. Let's fill those grocery carts and share our many blessings with those less fortunate. Thank you for your generosity!
