40 CANS FOR LENT Donating 40 cans of food during Lent, would help local families in need and is a way of maintaining our spirit of Lenten
sacrifice. The cans can be dropped off at the church office. Once collected they will be donated to a local Cookeville food bank.
DAUGHTER’S OF ISABELLA ANNUAL SCHOLARSHIP AWARD
The Daughters of Isabella are accepting applications for their annual scholar-ship. This award, in the amount of $1000, is given to a deserving high school senior girl chosen by a com-mittee of Daughters of Isabella members. Applica-tions can be picked up in the church the office.
SUICIDE AND HOPE This is a project of Father Chris Alar, MIC, a member of the Marian Fathers of the Immaculate Conception, the religious community entrusted with spreading the message and devotion of Divine Mercy. Father Alar's grand-
mother took her life when he was young so he is familiar with the concerns and grief of those left be-hind. Other resources are available on that site for "survivors of suicide." suicideandhope.com

REMINDER The groups in the myParish APP are for parishion-ers who are already part of that ministry or who would want to be part. I saw that many Hispanics asked to enter groups in English.
Please help us to achieve UNITY IN FORMATION in our Parish through FORMED and to improve communications through myParish App.
God bless you, Father Christiano
TORNADO RELIEF EFFORT
Let us coordinate our efforts to minister to our parishioners and community in distress due to the tornado. Donations in mone-tary form can be made to St. Thomas Aquinas Church with “tornado relief” written on the memo.
“God is both refuge and strength for us, a help always ready in time of trouble” (Psalm 46:1)

The S.T.O.P. outreach program, which provides assistance, to families in need, withing the community is in need of more volunteers. We meet on Tuesday mornings from 9am—11am in the Conference Room. Volunteers take in appli-cations and interview those individuals requesting assistance. If you are interested in this ministry, please call Susan O’Connor at 931-537-6786

"Some give freely, yet grow all the richer; others withhold, and only suffer want. A generous person will be enriched..."
Proverbs 11:24-25
