Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service is still on! January 18, 2021
This year we will do the event a little differently. We are asking families to make meals at home and then bring them to St. Jude on MLK day between 9am and 11am to fill St. Jude freezers and the Aid for Friends (now called Caring for Friends) freezers. Trays are available at the church vestibule, the convent garage, and the school vestibule.
Last year we made 2,000.00 meals. Hopefully we can match that!
When preparing a meal, please remember this may be that person’s only meal for the day. The trays need to have a protein, a starch, and a fruit or vegetable. Please don’t overfill the trays. Remember, most recipients are senior citizens.
Also remember to write what you made on the slip of paper to include with the meal tray. Your families can make the meals ahead of time and have them frozen already, if you would like.
To make your meal, you will need (available at the church vestibule, convent garage, school vestibule):
1 3-part foil tray and lid (or a piece of tinfoil)
1 label to write contents of the meal
1 plastic bag and twistie to close the bag (to put your meal in)
Instructions are also in the video on the Caring for Friends page, stjudechalfont.org/caring-for-friends.
If you have any questions, please call Diana Webster, 215-262-5584.

Our Philosophy at St. Jude CYO
CYO provides parish youth programs for grades 1 through 12. The purpose of this organization is to provide athletic programs, service, and volunteer activities for the Youth of St. Jude’s Parish. This is done with a spiritual and social connection to help enforce our Catholic beliefs.
CYO Highlights from 2018/2019:
- Over 300 athletes represented St Jude throughout the school year.
- More than 40 coaches volunteered countless hours dedicated to practice and games.
- Each team gathered in prayer prior to the start of every event, celebrated mass together and worked together to provide a mercy project to the community.
- CYO will send over 50 students to Camp Heart in Dover, Delaware to grow spiritually while providing a week of service for those in need.
- CYO donated over $25,000 for the 2018/2019 school year to St Jude Parish and the St Jude Education Center.
Not only do our youth represent us athletically, but they represent the parish in a way that should make us all feel proud.Thank you to everyone for supporting St Jude CYO!
We look forward to seeing everyone again in September. Look for announcements for fall sports sign-ups in August! Please contact us if you are interested in volunteering or if you would like your children to participate. We welcome you to our CYO family.
