Blessing Bags are portable plastic or cloth bags that can hold a variety of toiletry and perishable items, assembled and created by our Sacred Heart and PSR students, during our annual Lent Family Night. Blessing Bags were created last year as a service project to give out to any families or individuals in our community that are unhoused or in need.
Last year, our 3rd grade class worked together to create 30 blessing bags, which were distributed to our community through both The Society of St. Vincent de Paul Society and the parish office. Unfortunately, we found our community's need greater than the 30 bags created, so our desire is to supply more this year. In order to do so, we need your help.
Sacred Heart's Lent Family Night is held this year on Monday, March 24, 2025, in the Great Hall from 6:00 pm to 7:30 pm. That night, our students will put together the Blessing Bags for distribution by various parish ministries.
Below are the item requested for the Blessing Bags, as well as opportunities for you to contribute:

Any contribution is much appreciated! Most importantly, please continue to pray or all those in need within our community and beyond. Your prayers matter.
