House of Prayer Says Thank You
Thanks to funding from the Sisters of Mercy, Mount Saint Mary House of Prayer thanked the Watchung Police Department for their service to the community with lunch from Paisano's Pizzeria and Restaurant in Watchung. Each officer and restaurant worker received a gift certificate to attend a program so they can recharge after these stressful months.
We were also able to thank the workers at McAuley Hall Health Care Center with lunch from Harlee's Tap and Grille in New Providence. Each worker was gifted with a certificate to renew themselves at our House of Prayer.
