Red Cross Blood Drive

Summer is often a challenging time for blood donations, but the need for lifesaving blood never takes a vacation.
St. Michael the Archangel will host a Red Cross Blood Drive on Friday, July 24, from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Please consider making an appointment to donate by calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767), visiting RedCrossBlood.org, or using the free Red Cross Blood Donor App. Be sure to use Sponsor Code: stmichaeltroy.
We are also seeking volunteers to assist with registration and refreshments during the blood drive. If you can spare an hour, please sign up in the Gathering Area.
Thank you for helping bring hope and healing to those in need.
Feeding Our Neighbors with Generous Hearts

As one parish family across two churches, both St. Jude the Apostle and St. Michael the Archangel continue to support local food assistance efforts for neighbors in need.

St. Jude the Apostle collects food donations weekly, which are delivered to Doors of Hope.
St. Michael the Archangel holds its monthly food collection to support the Food Delivery Ministry.

During the summer months, many children are away from the meals and snacks they receive during the school year. This is a simple and meaningful way for our parish communities to live the words of Jesus: “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink.” — Matthew 25:35

Suggested donations include peanut butter, jelly, bread, juice boxes, cracker packages, and other shelf-stable foods. Please do not bring items that require refrigeration. Thank you for your kindness and generosity in helping feed children and families in need.
Back to School Supplies Drive

Annual “Back to School” Supplies Drive
Tri-County Catholic Charities’ Local Agencies
CoNSERNS U in Rensselaer
Roarke Center in Troy
Our local Catholic Charities agencies serving our neighborhoods rely on our parishioners’ generosity to help provide much needed school supplies to local children. In Rensselaer County the poverty rate is approx. 19% for children under 18 years of age. Success in school is essential for helping lift children out of
poverty, and new back packs and supplies brighten spirits and shore up self-esteem. A list of the most needed items can be found here.
Knights of Columbus Coats for Kids

You can support the Knights of Columbus Coats for Kids program by donating your empty bottles and cans at the 6¢ Redemption Center 461 Main Ave, Wynantskill, NY 12198 (just east of Stewart’s). Simply tell them the donation is for St. Jude’s Knights of Columbus. Thank you for your support.
Sleep in Heavenly Peace Bed Build

Our 5th Annual Bed Building Day is Saturday, August 1. Donations and volunteers are needed to help provide beds for children who do not have one. More information can be found here.
