We witness many acts of kindness during the Advent

response to the “Giving Tree” is always
amazing. Over 350 tags were prepared by
the Ladies Auxiliary this year. When
placed on the tree, they were gone so
quickly and the gifts immediately started
coming in. Thank you to the Ladies Auxiliary and to all of
you in the parish who participated. Your generosity is
always appreciated.
