MARION — Three parishes came together for a “St. Joseph’s Table” March 17. Our Lady of the Angels Mission hosted the event, with many volunteers from St. Bernadette Mission in Linville, St. Lucien Church in Spruce Pine and (pictured with Father Carl Kaltreider, Marion’s pastor) Sister Gertrude Gillette and Sister Scholastica Auguste of the Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Peace in Rutherfordton.
More than 600 spaghetti dinners were sold, and proceeds went to St. Lucien’s Ava Maria Food Pantry and other charities. Items on the St. Joseph’s Table were given to the poor in the community.
