St. Michael Clothing Connection Ministry

 

Toddler and Youth Clothing Is Always Needed!

The St. Michael Clothing Connection ministry is in short supply of toddler and youth clothing for boys and girls. We can really use parishioner help to build up our inventory as we move into the fall and winter months, especially as we gear up for our Clothing Give-Away Event in October.

If you can help, please bring new or gently-used fall/winter clothing and accessories in 13 gallon kitchen bags marked 'For Clothing Connection". Bags can be taken to the front office and someone will advise as to where you may place them. For more information, contact Marilyn Sinnes at 817.485.3302 or clothes@smcchurch.org.

Thank you for your generosity!

Mission:  Provide clothing to families in need.

     This ministry provides clothing to families within our parish and surrounding communities. Volunteers meet Thursday mornings from 9:00 AM to noon to pick-up, sort and fold donated clothing; assess and fulfill clothing requests from Christian Connection and other outreach organizations; and assist ministry leaders as needed.

  • Since the ministry’s inception in 2010, fourteen clothing give-away events have been held and over 6,600 individuals have been assisted through this ministry.
  • Approximately 80% of the gently-used clothing and shoes that are distributed by Clothing Connection are donated by St. Michael parishioners.

Ministry Leader Needed

The Clothing Connection Ministry is seeking a volunteer with strong organization, communication and leadership skills to fulfill the role of Ministry Leader, effective immediately.  As Ministry Leader you would oversee a team of volunteers relative to folding/sorting sessions, give-away events, outreach contacts, daily/weekly donations of clothing, ongoing inventory, and fulfillment of family clothing requests. Additionally, you would communicate regularly with SMC staff, the Clothing Connection team and other parish ministries, as needed.

"The bread which you do not use is the bread of the hungry; the garment hanging in your wardrobe is the garment of him who is naked; the shoes that you do not wear are the shoes of the one who is barefoot; the money that you keep locked away is the money of the poor; the acts of charity that you do not perform are so many injustices that you commit."  St. Basil the Great
