As Catholics, we are called to be the hands and feet of Christ, serving those in need with love and compassion. This month, our Pack with Purpose ministry is collecting breakfast and lunch to-go kits for homeless youth supported by our partner, HOPE 4 Youth, in Anoka.
Each night, over 6,000 young people in Minnesota face homelessness—sleeping in cars, on couches, or on the streets. HOPE 4 Youth provides meals, clothing, showers, and case management to help youth ages 16–24 find stability and hope.
If you’d like to help:
Please purchase any of the following single-serve items and drop them off in the Pack with Purpose bin, located in the Faith Formation gathering space under the Catholic Social Teaching banners.
- Pancake microwave cups
- Fruit cups
- Applesauce squeeze packs
- Juice boxes
- Mac & cheese cups
- Chef Boyardee cups
- Granola bars
- Fruit snacks
- Cheese & cracker packs

Join us to pack kits on Monday, June 9 at 6:30 pm in St. Joe Hall. All are welcome! Thank you for living out your faith by serving others!
