At SJTW, our Pack with Purpose ministry is dedicated to assembling and delivering care kits to those in need. Born from the challenges of COVID, this ministry continues to bring comfort, hope, and support to individuals and families facing hardship. Each kit is carefully assembled to include items most needed by the organization we are serving.
How You Can Get Involved
We invite all parishioners to be a part of this ministry. Here are some ways you can help:- Donate Items – Contribute to the list of needed items posted in the bulletin or found on the Pack with Purpose bin.
- Assemble Kits – Join us for a packing event on the 2nd Monday of the packing month.
- Pray – Keep the recipients of these kits in your prayers, asking for healing and hope in their lives.
If you would like to participate in an upcoming Pack with Purpose event or would like more information about Pack with Purpose, please contact Barry Shay or Theresa Warden in the parish office. -
November - Mobile Hope Bags of Joy
Once again, we are partnering with our friends at Mobile Hope through “Bags of Joy”. These gifts have become a beautiful parish tradition— bringing comfort, dignity, and joy to families in the Dayton mobile home community.
Each year, Mobile Hope provides a new list of needed items, so residents receive a variety of household essentials over time. These special bags are delivered to every household—often the only Christmas gift some families will receive.
If you’d like to contribute, please purchase any of the items on the list below. Please drop off donations in the clearly marked Pack with Purpose bin located in the Faith Formation Gathering Space (beneath the Seven Themes of Catholic Social Teaching banners) by November 30th.
• Warm Throws - Option from Amazon: Bags of Joy Throw
• $25 Gift Cards (Target or Walmart)
• Adult Coloring Books
• Colored Pencils
• Bags of Christmas Candy (M&Ms, Hershey Kisses, etc.)
• Homemade Christmas Cards (please leave them blank)
Financial gifts can also be made via the parish website —please note “Bags of Joy” with your donation.
