As the weather gets colder, our efforts to keep warm and dry increases. We go to our dresser and get a clean pair of socks, slip them on and we’re set. However, the sad news is so many of our sisters and brothers are not so fortunate. The community of St. Nicholas, in cooperation with the Episcopal Diocese of Chicago, will collect new socks throughout the winter season. Donations can be placed in the basket that will be on display. The collected socks will be distributed to the needy to help make their winter a bit warmer, dryer and safer. Your generosity and assistance are deeply appreciated.
