Please drop off between 3-5 p.m. There are 6 men and 2 staff members. Just ring the bell and hand your meal to the staff member who answers. You can bring their meal warm or let them heat it up with directions.
When you sign up through sign up genius (link below) please fill in what you plan to bring so there are limited duplications. The men and staff at Angel’s place are very appreciative of every meal they receive.

Blood Drive – October 30th
Our Lady Of Refuge Church is hosting the American Red Cross for a blood drive in the Social Hall Monday, October 30th from 1-7 p.m.
Appointments can be scheduled online by visiting www.redcrossblood.org and entering sponsor code “OLRC.”
The need for blood is constant and only volunteer donors can fulfill that need for patients in our community. Nationwide, someone needs a unit of blood every 2 to 3 seconds and most of us will need blood in our lifetime.
