On Thursday, January 9th, six incredible volunteers came together to assemble 60 Bags of Love for the homeless in Bridgeport during the upcoming Malta Walk with the Missionaries of Charity. Each thoughtfully packaged bag is filled with warm gloves, cozy beanie hats, hand warmers, granola bars and chapstick.

A huge shoutout to the generous donors whose support made all of this possible, showcasing the true spirit of community and compassion that defines the Order of Malta. Members couldn’t wait to hit the streets that coming Sunday and share these tokens of love.

On a chilly Sunday, January 12th, members gathered with the Missionaries of Charity to bring warmth and comfort to those in need through the distribution of the bags they assembled. The heartfelt gratitude expressed by the recipients reminds us of the importance of compassion during the cold winter months. We extend our deepest appreciation to the dedicated volunteers and generous donors whose support made this outreach possible.

Looking ahead, we are excited to announce that another opportunity for outreach is set for April 13th. We warmly invite all members and supporters to join us in organizing the next walk.

Together, we can continue to foster a spirit of community and service, embodying the values of the Order of Malta in our mission to uplift those in need.
