Let's have lots of winners on Souper Bowl Sunday!
 Our Confirmation Candidates are planning the best and biggest food drive ever this year on February 5th, Super Bowl Sunday. In an effort to help others and fill up food pantry shelves, we are inviting young and old to bring cans of soup or any other non- perishable items to church on Super Bowl Sunday.
Start stocking up for Souper Bowl Sunday food collection!!! We love our Super Bowl parties and eat lots of great food that day! Remembering those who have less with a Souper Bowl food collection is an annual service project our Confirmation Candidates organize.
You can starting putting things aside now or buying some sale items. Whatever team wins the big game, there will also be lots of winners around Chicago who will benefit from our help. Every little bit helps and together we can make a difference!
