THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO DONATED AN EASTER BASKET OR MADE A MONETARY DONATION. This year parishioners donated over 750 baskets for needy children in our area. We couldn't do it without the hard work and love of St. Jude parishioners.
Before Easter parishioners can choose a needy child or children by age and gender and provide an Easter Basket to be delivered by a service agency. It is a fun and wonderful way to brighten the Easter holiday for a young child. Baskets are given to Moorpark Catholic Charities, Ventura Catholic Charities, Harbor House in Thousand Oaks and Many Mansions.
We ask that the baskets be wrapped in cellophane and be ready to give to a child. The baskets can be store bought or handmade for children from infants to 13 years. Please deliver baskets to the parish hall before and after all Masses on the scheduled collection dates. If you miss the collection weekend, please deliver your baskets to the Pastoral Office. All parishioners are encouraged to donate an Easter Basket or two! We do take monetary donations with which we will make baskets. Please make out to Loaves and Fishes Easter Basket Collection or click the donate button to make an online donation. For more information, please call Jane McDade (805)405-6154
