I've heard it said, "The prisoners get soap, we don't need to supply it."  However, if you were a prisoner in jail, wouldn't you appreciate a special bar of soap such as Irish Spring, Dove, Coast, Caress, or Zest?  As for candy, inmates can only buy candy if they have money or as a gift from people like you.  Wouldn't you appreciate a bit of sweetness?  Bring your gift of soap or candy to church and put it in the specially marked baskets at the doors of the church November 11 - 26. In December, the Oakland County Jail fills with song and gift packages.  If you would like to help pack packages or sing please contact Mary Ann Simmons 248-543-3420.

Each year St. Vincent Ferrer parishioners have supported local charities.  The trees will once again be filled with tags for the needy.  Thank you for your generosity!
