I was a stranger and you made me welcome
Matt 25:35
St. Chad’s Sanctuary is a voluntary project supported by many friends, including
St. Chad’s Cathedral and The Salvation Army.
It’s a place of welcome and hospitality for
Asylum Seekers, Refugees and Immigrants.
We greatly appreciate donations of food, hygiene items and clothing.
We also accept financial help as well!!!
Thank you, Margaret Walsh, IJS (Infant Jesus Sister)
