Coats for JB
Thanks for your support! Due to your generosity we have donated over 50 coats to the John the Baptist Coat Collection. However, the drive has not ended! We are still accepting donations of coats for men, women & children. We are especially in need of coats for men. When you start that spring cleaning project please keep us in mind. Why store unused coats for another year?
