Homeless Ministry
The St. Leo Homeless Ministry would like to thank all parishioners who donated gift cards and food for the soup kitchen held at Immanuel House in Martinsburg. We were able to feed between 80 and 100 people!
We are currently working on adding a soup kitchen in Inwood. When a location has been secured, we hope to have parishioners help with the set up, serving, and clean up. For more information contact Monica Cressin at [email protected]

Gift Card Program
Our Gift Card Ministry helps take a bite our of our church debt. Every weekend, we have Martins, Food Lion, Target, Walmart, Sheetz, Lowes, and Amazon cards available. Many more gift cards for retail stores and restaurants are available for preorder. There is a list on the gift card table in the narthex. If you do not see a particular store on the list, please contact the office (304-229-8945 or [email protected]).
St. Leo receives a percentage from each card sold, which helps to pay down our building debt. It's a win-win situation! You get face value of the gift card, we get a percentage back from the program.
Gift cards are sold on Sundays after the 9 am Mass until 11:15 am. Cards are also available in the church office during the week, Monday through Thursday, from 9 am until 4 pm.

Our young Knights have completed the year and we were all proud of each of their accomplishments. Father awarded each young Knight their final award pin and a gift from the Parish, a St. Joseph statue (patron Saint of the Blue Knights), for their prayer shelf.
We would like to thank Extra Ordinary Flags for the wonderful stitch work during the year, Food Lion (Inwood) for several cases of water donated, Jim and Martha Parrish for various donated items from our St. Leo gift shop, St. Leo’s Knights of Columbus for their participation with our awards night and more, Father Bo from St. Bernadette’s for his participation in the fall, our own Deacon Brian for a special explanatory Stations, our families who brought the young Knights all year, Michele Bui and Father Alfred for allowing me the opportunity to serve St. Leo Parish, and finally the St. Leo Parish family.
Finally, I would like to announce that sign-up sheets are in the parish office for next year. On their journey with Jesus, Young Knights will learn through play and other fun activities more about being Catholic. Please help us keep this wonderful program alive by becoming a Blue Knight.
Thank you and God bless and keep you all,
