Thanksgiving Baskets
Each year, All Saints Delivery Food Bank prepares special Thanksgiving meal baskets for our clients. Thanks to your support, we were able to serve 80 families this year.
Thank you to our school families for donating hundreds of cans of food to support this project! We are also so appreciative to Shirley Wagner and her Thanksgiving Angels. They provided 10 baskets and turkeys to our food bank clients as well as providing 70 more to others in our Puyallup community!

Laudato Si
As we near the end of The United Nations Climate Change Convention COP27, Catholic Relief Services continues to advocate at COP27P for what is fair. This includes the acknowledgment that the South, particularly Africa, is impacted by Climate Change more than any other continent, yet they only contribute less than 4% of the total emissions. Visit www.crs.org for more information and to see how you can help!
“With regard to climate change, the advances have been regrettably few. Reducing greenhouse gases requires honesty, courage and responsibility, above all on the part of those countries which are more powerful and pollute the most... International negotiations cannot make significant progress due to positions taken by countries which place their national interests above the global common good. Those who will have to suffer the consequences of what we are trying to hide will not forget this failure of conscience and responsibility.” ~ Pope Francis, Laudato Si (Papal Encyclical)
