Pursuing Peace During Advent
The Advent season is a time of waiting and preparation for Christmas, the birth of the Prince of Peace. Yet, this holy season has become increasingly more stressful.
Join us for this informative and inspiring mini-retreat as we consider practical ways to make room for the Prince and His peace this Advent (and always).
Our Giving Tree is up!
The Youth Group has created gift tags for our four organizations this year:
- St. Benedict's Church
- Holy Family Home
- Cradles to Crayons
- Guiding Star Ministries
Please return gifts by December 5 in the bins available in the entrances of the church.

Caring for Friends could use some yummy meals.
You could put those Thanksgiving leftovers to good use next week!
Are you new to making meals for CFF? Our new leader, Colleen Curry, will be happy to walk you through it! Email her at curryhome@icloud.com to set up a time when she can show you the ropes.
It's easy, and it's a GREAT thing to do with the kids as a Corporal Work of Mercy for the upcoming Advent Season.

This Sunday, palm will be distributed before Mass by ushers, as in the past, and blessed at the beginning of Mass.
For those who still cannot come to church because of health reasons, on Palm Sunday we will place a basket of blessed palm outside the main entrance of the church after the noon Mass (around 1:00pm) for anyone to stop by to pick up a couple pieces.
