Our next meal prep weekend falls on the same weekend as our Parish Pentecost Celebration. Please note there is only ONE MASS that weekend, at 10:00 am on Sunday, May 19 (see below for more information).

St. Robert’s is responsible for meal preparation for the Bread & Roses Hospitality House in Lawrence once per month all year. It’s as easy as adding an item to the grocery list and dropping off in Driscoll Hall when you come to Mass!

Food items needed every month are:

• Cooked ground beef—50+ pounds
• Soft tacos (8-inch size)—20 packages
• Shredded cheese—30 pounds
• Salsa—6 large jugs (70 oz./ea) or equivalent
• Seasoning—25-30 packets
• Lettuce—16 heads
• Cucumbers—15
• Tomatoes—48 medium/large

May is a little unusual as our food collection weekend falls on the same weekend as our Parish Pentecost Celebration. There is only one Mass that weekend, at 10:00 am on Sunday. You can bring your donations with you to Mass as usual (or leave NON-perishables in the Bread & Roses bin in the vestibule); there will be someone in Driscoll Hall kitchen before and after Mass to receive your donations. For more information or if you would like to make arrangements to drop off earlier in the week (if you cannot be with us on May 19), please contact Marian & David Magnan or Lisa Lattari. Thank you for your continuing generosity!
