The Thrift Shop Ministry 

Holy Family Thrift shop plays an important part in the community.  It does more than provide clothing and other items at very affordable prices.  In cases of emergencies such as fires, The Thrift Shop opens its doors to those in distress and offers them clothing and available household items free of charge.  The money raised by the thrift shop goes generously back into the community.

Most recently The Thrift Shop administrators have requested approval from the vestry to make twice yearly donations to the following non-profit organizations. (The approval was needed because Holy Family By-Laws, which oversees The Thrift Shop, requires checks overs $250 be approved by the vestry.

The non-profit organizations that The Thrift Shop supports are as follows:

Kids in Distress

 $    5,000.00 

Foster Kids (State of Michigan

 $    1,000.00 

Food Pantries (as follows)

St. Clair

 $    2,000.00 

Marysville

 $1,000.00 

Marine City

 $1,000.00 

Blue Water Rescue Mission N-Warm

 $1,000.00 

The ARC of St. Clair County

 $1,000.00 

Blue Water Safe Horizons

 $1,000.00 

The Harbor 

 $ 1,000.00 

 

 Total                            $ 14,000.00 

 As you can see the Thrift Shop is a very important part of the outreach performed by Holy Family.   Volunteers and donations are always needed and welcomed.  Please contact the church office for more information.

A special thanks to all those volunteers that keep this important ministry going.

 

Prayer Ministry

 Holy Family’s Prayer Ministry is inclusive, in other words, we pray for everyone whether they are members of Holy Family or not AND we protect the privacy of the individuals.  Everyone who wishes to pray for those on the prayer list will have access to the prayer list.  The list will be given to the readers each week so that we may pray for everyone during Prayers of the People.

You can make a prayer request by writing your request on the white board in the Parish Hall just outside the kitchen door.

Prayer examples:

I need prayers-Sharon (Remember God knows what you need so you don’t have to be specific if you don’t want to.)

I am asking prayers for Helen- she has cancer.

I am asking that you pray for me as I start my new job.  Harry Jones

You get the idea. 

The prayer list will be updated and added to weekly and will be displayed in the Parish Hall  At the end of each month, we will refresh the list removing all those names that have not requested to be continued on the list longer than a month.  This is to keep the list manageable.

Any Questions please see Vestry members or the Church Office.
