The delectable eggs were listed by Penn LIVE as part of its Top 65 Best Food Choice (July 2014), featured in Central PA Magazine's Top 52 Local Bites (Jan/Feb 2015), and voted #1 peanut butter egg in a PennLive poll (March 2018).
Last year, 50,000 eggs were sold through businesses, direct orders, and at Seven Sorrows Parish. Roughly 5,000 pounds of peanut butter, 600 pounds of butter/margarine, and 3,000 pounds of chocolate were used. This year, over 100 volunteers will be called on to prepare and distribute the eggs!
All eggs are sold on a first-come, first-serve basis while quantities last. Visit https://www.ssbvm.org/eggs for details and contact information.

Shanthi Dham (Abode of Peace) is a Fransalian (Missionaries of St. Francis de Sales) initiative in Mysuru, Karnataka, South India, inspired by the life of Saint Mother Teresa of Calcutta, who found Jesus in the distressing disguise of the poorest of the poor and served Him in the poorest of the poor, the unwanted, homeless, orphans, lepers, neglected and unloved people.
We rejoice that work is underway! Construction of Shanthi Dham began in February 2024; we are grateful to be able to share the progress since then with you. Please click the logo on the left for more information.
