HENDERSONVILLE — Parishioners of Immaculate Conception Church donated three van loads of items, including gently-used winter coats, blankets and towels during the parish’s fall donation drive at Masses Sept. 29-30. The donations will benefit clients of Interfaith Assistance Ministry.
“An annual event for some 20 years, the drive has been consistently and generously supported,” noted Immaculate Conception’s pastor, Capuchin Franciscan Father Martin Schratz. The donation drive is coordinated by parishioner Jo-Ann Kelly. “I am always amazed and gratified at the tremendous response,” Kelly said, “and interfaith Ministry is always so grateful that we are doing this.”
