                    For I was . . . naked and you clothed me . . . .  Matthew 25:35-36  


Matthew 25 Bazaar Free Store 

MATTHEW 25 MINISTRY:  Matthew 25 is one of the oldest social justice ministries at Our Lady Queen of Peace.  Its name and our mission are taken from the Gospel of Saint Matthew, Chapter 25:31-46.  We offer gently used clothing, shoes, and small household goods, among other items, to those in need at no charge.   Matthew 25 relies on the generous donations of parishioners and the general public for clothing and other items.  All Matthew 25 operations are staffed solely by volunteers.

CONTACTS:  For more information about Matthew 25, please contact Sally Diaz Wells or Jim Callow at:  [email protected]
