If interested or you have any questions, please contact Sara Sides at Clean@MaterDeiPA.com. There is a cleaning checklist that takes about an hour to complete. Supplies are provided - just show up! If you are willing to help out but are not able to commit every month, there is a list of substitute cleaners who are called on when a regularly scheduled cleaner cannot make it. Please consider joining the substitute list to help keep our church fresh and clean!
