Recently, we received the OK to drop off St Peters cares about you bags, which will be quarantined for a day and then given to the specified person. The bags will be given out once a month. Are you crafty or are you looking for something to give the kiddos or grandkids to do? We would love to have some handmade cards or short note to add to the bags.
