Saint Joseph Table Provides for Poor

O Glorious Saint Joseph, most just and most chaste; your entire life, your vocation was to care for Mary, your spouse, and to be the earthly father of Jesus, our Savior.  In this loving care for Christ, the Head of the Church and Mary, the Church's preeminent member, you truly are the patron of the Universal Church.  As our parish of Saint Andrew the Apostle honors you, we, too, provide for the Church by caring for those most in need.  Our food and bread will provide sustenance for the hungry and poor.  May we always imitate you in providing for your Church.  Saint Joseph, pray for us.

Yesterday, our school students and members of the parish brought various food items to offer at our Saint Joseph Table.  Homemade breads and many other non-perishable food items were presented during morning Mass and at the Stations of the Cross - and were taken to the New Hope Shelter here in Waynesboro.  Thank you for your love and concern for the least among us.
