Our St. Pauly Mission Clothing Project is run by our Confirmation students: they help prepare the bags for St. Pauly’s drivers to pick up, and help people be aware of the good they can do with clean used clothing!

In 2016 roughly 16,141 garments of clothing were donated to our MHR clothing drop off shed project. This was enough to clothe an estimated 1,957 people. This clothing is being used right now by people in one of 44 different countries (including the US) to which our clothing was distributed that past year.
Nothing is shredded, nothing is destroyed! Everything goes to help people in need!
Thanks to everyone who collaborates with us to keep the Lord's Command to clothe the naked, feed the hungry and bring His Mercy to everyone in need!
