This year, the parish’s "Snack Pack Blessings” program, which provides weekend food for Middleton Cross Plains Area School District students, begins Oct. 7. We are very short-handed on volunteer drivers. We are looking for a minimum of five more drivers to schedule on a four– to five-week rotation. Please email georgine.jacobs@gmail.com or call/text 608-698-1455 by Oct. 3.

Stephanie Adamski, an account sales executive with Liturgical Publications, Inc., which publishes our weekly bulletin and our quarterly newsletter, will be here Sept. 19-21 to generate some new advertising revenue for our parish.

St. Bernard’s Human Needs Commission will hold a food drive for Middleton Outreach Ministry (MOM) on the weekends of Sept. 17-18 and 24-25.
