Diocesan Annual Food Bowl
The annual Diocesan Food Bowl Collection takes place during the Lenten
season and funds local parish and community soup kitchens and food closets.
This special collection provides an opportunity for parishes, schools, religious education programs, individuals and families to put in practice the Lenten disciplines of prayer, fasting, and almsgiving.
Some of the activities that parishes, schools, families and individuals can do during the Lenten season include:
- Sponsor a parish or school-wide food bowl event
- Make a family commitment to donate to the food bowl
- Plan a Penny Drive
- Pledge monthly support of the food bowl
- Pray for the success of the food bowl
