Friar's Pantry Update

According to this week's Cathedral bulletin, the Friar's Pantry (our charity) is in great need of cereal (the large bags at Winco, Smith's, Big Lots, and Grocery Outlet aren't that pricey). Other needs include canned or boxed milk, mustard, ketchup, mayonnaise, soups, Hamburger and Tuna Helper, jam/jelly, and personal care items (toothbrushes, toothpaste, travel size shampoo and conditioner, lotion, etc.).

Normally, you can bring such items to rehearsal and Kathy will run them over to the Pantry. However, do NOT bring them to rehearsal this week; Kathy will not be there. You may take them to the Cathedral sacristy or gift shop; for the best times to do so, please call the Cathedral office at 775-329-2571 or Gail at 775-359-4330.
