SHARING SUNDAY WILL BE THIS WEEKEND! Each year during Advent our parish makes a special effort to share our blessings with other parishes in the Galveston-Houston Archdiocese. Through our annual SHARING SUNDAY we are able to help local parishes distribute food and gifts to needy famlies. Gifts are needed for children, adults, and senior citizens. Please wrap and tag these gifts with the age and gender of the recipient (for example, boy aged 10-12). Grocery items are also needed but do not need to be wrapped. We also appreciate any gift card donation or donations through checks. Please make checks payable to St. Martha Catholic Church, and indicate in the memo line that it is for Sharing Sunday. We will NOT be accepting cash donations this year. We encourage you to take time to discuss with your family ways that your Christmas can be shared with other families. For more information, please contact Gelly Estess, gellymar@suddenlink.net. As always, thank you for your generosity!
