Collection for Refugee Family
A group of St. Paul Volunteers has partnered with World Relief to form a Good Neighbor Team, which will mentor a local refugee family. The Semiyrango family consists of mom and dad and 7 kids aging from 2-20. They are originally from the Congo, and after a lengthy and legal process, arrived in the US in April of 2024. Dad and an adult son are working full-time to support the family, but they could use help with several items.
We are collecting new or gently used fall/winter clothing, household items, and personal care products, as well as gift cards. Please drop donations off in the bins located along the windows in the gathering space and gift cards (in an envelope marked Good Neighbor Team) to the Parish Office by Oct. 31. If buying new, please attach a receipt so that items can be exchanged if needed. Contact Sandy Steinke at 563.940.1481 with any questions. Thank you for your generosity!
