Desert Angels

There is no better way to see God’s love in action than by helping others. Through the Desert Angels Program, we will be collecting and packaging items to boost morale and encourage our soldiers who are serving overseas. 

You can help by donating items from the list of needed goods below and then dropping those items off at your church.

And then let’s all come and work together to pack these Desert Angel boxes on Saturday, March 18 at 9 AM at St. Isidore. To help us prepare, please register for this event on our website.

Please arrive by 8:45 for a short prayer service and some breakfast snacks!
