​Your Generous Donations at Work

Picture
Many of you were present at St. John’s on December 12th, 2021, when Vinnie Pannizzo attended the service and gave a presentation explaining his work with the homeless. He is the “saint” who picks up our donation of meal bags and blankets/jackets every week on Thursdays. There was a craft fair that Sunday and all of the proceeds were given to either our VISION project or Vinnie’s organization: www.missionforthehomeless.org.
Soon after that, Vinnie’s well-used van broke down. The complete cooling system (radiator, hoses, and water pump) had to be replaced. The VISION team was very pleased to be able to cover that expense ($1200) due to the generous donations from St. John’s parishioners. THANK YOU!

The warm camel hair coat that Vinnie is wearing was also a donation from a caring member of St. John’s.
