Corpus Christi Parish in Waterville conducted a nonperishable food drive from Jan. 21 to Feb. 11, due to the pre-Christmas storm where many power outages and flooding caused local food pantries and The Lighthouse soup kitchen to need additional food and resources.
A collection also was taken up during that time to be donated to the The Lighthouse — Waterville Area Soup Kitchen, the Winslow Community Cupboard and the St. John the Baptist, food pantry to support those in need, according to a news release from Dan Spofford with Corpus Christi Parish.
This food drive was supported by the St. John the Baptist Secular Franciscan Fraternity.
