Homeless Fall
The
brilliant colors of autumn have come right on schedule to the Servants of the
Father of Mercy, children, youth and families.
Last week at “Youth & Family Night” (always the last Friday of each
month from 6p – 9p), the gang got together to express their creativity and make
“fall pinecone trees” as centerpieces for Halloween and Thanksgiving home and
office decorations. All-in-all, this
unique fundraiser for the homeless people we serve includes 100 pinecone works
of art. Each cone, depending on its
size, is potted in a small, medium or large Italian clay pot and decorated with
fall leaves, moss, pumpkins and ribbons.
The families plan to sell them door-to-door, to businesses and church
goers. The suggested donation for each
piece is $5, $10 or $15 depending on size.
If you plan to order one online, let us know via email and be sure to
include an extra $7.00 for boxing, bubble wrap and shipping. Email us your shipping address at contact@servantsofthefather.org
and donate any amount you wish to our homeless family easily online at http://servantsofthefather.org/donate_2_homeless
; you can post checks as well. Send to
Servants of the Father of Mercy, P. O. Box 42001, Los Angeles, CA 90042. All donations are tax deductible and will be
used for Thanksgiving and Christmas StreetReach to homeless living under
bridges and in alleyways; delivering to them food, water, clothing, blankets,
spiritual supplies and more. Enjoy the
