Greater Meriden CCW (Meriden, CT)

The Greater Meriden Council of Catholic Women is busy again making Christmas bags for Catholic residents in nursing homes. Year after year, these bags have brought joy and happiness to many who often feel alone and sad at this time of year. Above a  group of the Council is standing in front of a sampling of the bags ready for delivery!

The bags are filled with small items, such as soaps, socks, scarves, puzzle books, rosaries and small religious books.  Last year they provided over 400 bags to multiple nursing homes.  This is a labor of love as they fill not only the Christmas bags but also the hearts of those who will not feel so alone during this beautiful season.
