One of the Corporal Works of Mercy is Feed the Hungry. We take that charge seriously and work with community organizations to provide food to those in need.
Funeral Luncheon Ministry: As a eucharistic community, we feel that each funeral service should reflect the life of the deceased person, while meeting the needs of the family and the assembled community, including the funeral luncheon. It is our role as the eucharistic family to accommodate these needs by providing salads, desserts and drinks for the family's catered meal. Volunteers also help set-up and serve the meal. To join this team, call the parish office at 608-831-6531.
Luke House: On the first Wednesday of each month, a team of volunteers prepares and serves a noon meal at Luke House in Madison. Volunteers meet in our kitchen at 9:30 a.m., and arrive back around 1 p.m., when the meal is being served at Luke House. For those who want to help but cannot go during the day, donations of ingredients or treats are helpful.
Catholic Multicultural Center (CMC) meal program: On the third Monday of each month, a team of volunteers prepares and serves an evening meal at the Catholic Mutlitcultural Center in Madison. Volunteers meet at church at 12:30 p.m., and return around 6 p.m. For those who want to help but cannot go during the day, donations of ingredients or treats are helpful.
St. Vincent de Paul - Located at 2033 Fish Hatchery Road in Madison, SVdP Madison helps provide food, clothing, pharmacy help, housing, lockers if you are temporarily homeless, furniture and household goods and energy assistance.
WayForward Resources: WayForward Resources (formerly Middleton Outreach Ministry) accepts food and personal care donations, focusing ONLY on what is on their Top Ten List. Fresh garden produce is also accepted. Due to their current food distribution process, donated items that are not on their Top 10 list will likely not be used for quite some time. The Top 10 list is updated several times per month at wayforwardresources.org. Donation bins are located at each of the church entrances.
Snack Pack Blessings - Weekend food program for students in the Middleton Cross Plains Area School District. Food items are bought by St. Bernard each week, and then the snack packs are stuffed into reusable bags and delivered to the schools.
Feed My Sheep - An annual food packaging event. The Westside Catholic Youth Network Parishes organizes this annual event, which is held at the Catholic Multicultural Center-West in Fitchburg. Registration usually begins on Ash Wednesday.
