Book Drive for Hope House


One of our parish families is donating a reading room
for the children who visit Hope House. The reading
room is being dedicated to Father Martin Rauscher
who, as you know, is an avid and active supporter of
Hope House and the services it provides to the poor
and marginalized of our community.

On the weekends of July 17th and 24th we will be
collecting new and gently used books to help in this
endeavor. The books should be for the age groups of
PreK to 2nd grade. If you would like, a “donated by”
name plate will be displayed in each new book
donated to the reading room. Please put your name
on the bag and we will add it to the cover of the book.
Books can be left in the community room on the table
designated for the collection.

As always, we thank you for your generous support.
Hope House is a Catholic Charities Agency in the
Diocese of Paterson “providing help—creating hope.”
