Annual Gently Used Coat Drive

I wanted to update everyone on the success we had with the coat drive. In spite of the "Extratropical Storm" on Saturday we collected 828 coats, hats, scarves, and misc items of clothing to give to Amos House, Tap-In, McCauley House, RI Veterans Action Center and RI Donation Exchange. I want to thank everyone who signed up to help me. There were so many jobs and so many hands. I truly appreciate everyone's help. If you want to help and couldn't this year just remember there is always next year! Thank you and God bless.


I was hungry and you gave me food…I was naked and you gave me clothing…just as you did it to one of the least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.” Matthew 25:31


This year the Annual Coat Drive will be held on Saturday, November 3rd from 10am until 2pm. If you have gently used clean outerwear that you wish to donate please come by. There is a Drive-Thru service offered so you do not need to leave the comfort of your car.

If you do not have gently used outerwear but wish to donate something please consider "NEW" items of clothing. Some of the items you can give during the month of October are:

Mens, Womens, Children's socks (Packaged)
Hats, Scarves and Mittens
Fleece Vests
Sweatshirts
Blankets (No wool)

There will be boxes in the side entrances to the church where you can place your new item donations.

There are also volunteer opportunities available for the day of the Coat Drive. If you are interested please contact Michele Pimentel at pimentel_michele@hotmail.com
