A Neighbor In Need of Furniture
-
Our Outreach and SVDP ministries are so excited to have successfully found housing for someone! A couch, bed, and coffee table will be provided, but this neighbor could use some other furniture items,
primarily a table and chairs and a desk.
Please contact Huddie Murray if you can help. If you have a way to transport said furniture, that would be helpful too!

New Outfits for Saint Louise House Kids
-
Saint Louise House needs help to provide new school outfits for their almost 80 school-age children. In order to let the families shop for themselves, they are asking for $25 gift cards to Old Navy. Their goal is to provide every school-age child a $25 gift card to buy one new school outfit.
- Cards can be mailed directly to: Saint Louise House P.O. Box 150637 Austin, TX 78715
- Please mail the gift cards no later than Friday, July 31, 2020
Alternatively, donations can be made online towards the new outfits at this website. Visit the Treasure tab. Please be sure to put "New School Outfits" in the memo line.
Saint Louise House provides housing and essential services in Austin to women with children who are experiencing homelessness. Their goal is for families to stay together and develop long-term stability and self-sufficiency.

Hospitality - Your Kind Welcome Is What we Need
-
During this time of re-opening St. Austin for Mass, there are few on staff able to help at our weekend liturgies, and we hope some of you will consider giving us a hand with Hospitality at Mass. You DO NOT have to be a member of our regular Hospitality Ministry to help but you DO have to be EIM certified.
This task is very easy and involves: Ushering families/individuals to available seats, making sure to maintain 6-feet distance between parties, and reminding them of the importance of wearing their face mask during Mass. (You will not hand out worship aids or have any physical contact with anything/anyone)
Hospitality Helpers must wear a face mask at all times If you feel comfortable helping, contact Dr. Andrea for more information: apobanz@staustin.org
