Please consider being a "Secret Santa". This program is administered out of our parish office. Your donations can be dropped off at the office or put in the Sunday collection basket in a plain envelope marked “Secret Santa.” This program benefits parishioners who might be having a tough time making ends meet. We think we have a reasonably good handle for those in need, but if you know a parishioner who could use some help, please let us know. Thank you.
The weekend of December 2nd and 3rd there will be paper ornaments on the Christmas Tree, each with a gift suggestion for the children in the Mission of St. Joan of Arc Parish (Stockings), the Ladies in Dawn’s place (Gingerbread Men) and the Blessed Sacrament Sisters at Paul’s Run (Christmas Trees). Please take one of the ornaments from the tree! The following weekend of December 9th and 10th, you are asked to bring your gifts to Church and place them in the baskets on the altar prior to Mass. We ask that you bring the gifts in a gift bag, if possible, with the ornaments taped securely to the outside of the package. The gifts are sorted for distribution to the different organizations by the ornament.
