- Please consider using recyclable dishes when sharing food items for the bereavement luncheon. Recyclable items will remain in the parish center kitchen for future use. If you bring a personal reusable dish, please identify it with a permanent or water-resistant label on the bottom and the lid.
- All personal items clearly labeled will be washed and sanitized by bereavement luncheon volunteers and available for pickup within 48 hours of the luncheon. You can pick up these personal items from the courtesy pews located near the main entrance at the parish church you are associated with.
