The local community in Creeslough is supporting the tremendous work of Brother Kevin of the Capuchin Day Centre in Dublin.
Brother Kevin has been at the forefront in helping the homeless for many years.
A collection is now taking place for the ‘Brother Kevin’ appeal over the next week at St Michael’s Church in Creeslough.
Items can be left at the back of the church up until next Tuesday, December 17th.
The centre is urgently in need of nappies for children, baby food, baby wipes, new/unused clothing for infants, babies and children. Also they would be very grateful for tea, sugar, tinned foods, biscuits, new/unused scarves, gloves, socks, ponchos, coats for adults and any type of foods with a long expiry date, e.g. cereal.
Brother Kevin has sincerely thanked the people of Donegal for their tremendous generosity which has greatly helped so many homeless people and people in need.
He said he feels humbled and is eternally grateful to the many people who have reached out. He assures everyone of his continued prayers. Ards Friary and the people of Donegal hold a very special place in his heart.
The Capuchin Day Centre in Dublin continues to feed around 1000 people per day and there is a growing number of mothers with babies and young children and also senior citizens sadly having to avail of this service. Unfortunately, homelessness and people in dire need is increasing on a daily basis.
Donations of material goods or donations of money can be left in St. Michael’s Church Creeslough, or the Ozanam Centre, Dunfanaghy with Fr. John Joe Duffy 087 3143532.
