On Tuesday, August 6th, our parish provided a table at the Woodland Park National Night Out. Great weather and a great cause drew many community members to raise awareness, generate support for anti-crime programs, and enhance community-police relationships. Food, Rides, Games, DJ, demonstrations and giveaways were part of the event. We thank our parishioner Christine Murphy, member of Woodland Park Municipal Alliance, for being a liaison for our parish’s participation. Also we thank Claire Centrella, Dominick Bucci, Malissa Betancur, Renata, Michael and Natalie Cyman who were helping to collect nonperishable food items and distributed flyers for our upcoming social events. On the table the church’s sign was displayed along with an indication – Food Drive for the Fr. English Food Pantry. The food items were donated by our parishioners and other people. Four large boxes were collected. On Thursday these items along with another eight bags collected earlier in the parish hall, three boxes of clothing and one box of books, were donated to the Fr. English Food Pantry. On behalf of the needy, we thank each and everyone who helped or donated for this noble cause.
