All chapter members are requested to help in some way with the annual Thanksgiving Basket program.
The Holy Rosary Chapter, with help from Holy Rosary Parish, the older CCD students, and the Knights of Columbus, distributes around 100 baskets of food to the needy in our community and parish. Over half of these go to residents of low income housing near Holy Rosary church. Need is high this year, with unemployment and isolation being factors.
Ways to help include volunteering to do shopping, help in assembling the baskets, and of course monetary donations. To volunteer, contact our Prioress, Cecelia Hoesly, at ceceliahoesly @ yahoo.com, or by phone at 971-506-5117.
Also, since we have not been meeting in person, we have not had a chance since February to ‘pass the basket’. To support our chapter, please send a check to ‘Dominican Laity-Holy Rosary Chapter’ with your donation intention on the memo line, to
