Holy Martyrs Food Baskets - We are building Christmas celebration food baskets for families in need in our community. We would like to give them a healthy, hearty meal to enjoy for Christmas dinner and stock a few items in their pantries for the cold winter. We are collecting food at Holy Martyrs to be sorted and delivered on Tuesday, December 20. For more information, contact Danielle at (207) 232-5113 or dtracy1@maine.rr.com.
