Our parish community has a long tradition of generous outreach at Christmas time to help benefit local Catholic families who live at poverty level or below whose children attend our local parochial schools. Due to the safety protocols we must employ and in order not to make any requests of our parishioners that would impose on their safety, we have completely redesigned our Christmas program for 2020 only.
This year we are asking for gift cards to local variety stores such as Target or Walmart or a VISA card, in the amount appropriate for you. Please include a gift receipt or use a felt-tip pen to write the amount of the gift on the card. Our team here at the parish will place the gift cards with families according to the number of adults/ number of children in the family. We ask that the gift cards be brought to church on the weekends of November 7-8, 14-15, and 21-22. The gift cards will then be taken to the schools for the parents who will then use the cards to purchase gifts for their family. Thank you for sharing your Christmas heart.
