ADOPT A FAMILY—BE AN ANGEL
Grandparents are helping their families in need. I feel we should give them a boost. (especially those trying to get families to church). Many of our older, faithful parishioners could use a boost. If you care to help- Money or Gift cards will be used in your name. Just mark Adopt A Family and they will get to Sr. Monica. During this coming Advent season, let us all reflect on God’s goodness to us. Sr. Monica
WOMEN’S CARE CENTER GIVING TREE:
As has been done over the past 30 years, the Women’s Care Center is providing us the opportunity to help the women who come to the Center. In the narthex of the church you will find the “Giving Tree”. Please choose an ornament from the free, purchase the item listed on the back, and return the item unwrapped under the tree. Items will be given away as a reward to moms & dads who participate in prenatal and parenting classes throughout the coming year. Thank you for your generous support!
