Anytime you have any gently used household items be it clothing, furniture, kitchen utensils, appliances,
etc. please think first of our Norton Ministry. Norton
is a small town in Wise County in the farthest most
corner of western Virginia. It is one of the three
most impoverished counties in the US. It is a locality
that the people of St. Therese have been committed
to helping for over twenty years. Through the generosity of two local trucking firms we are now able to
make two trips to Norton per year to deliver these
much needed items. Whenever you have anything to
donate, please call Kathy Renigar at 757 376-7160.
PLEASE DO NOT BRING ITEMS TO THE CHURCH.
