Our parish community has always been very generous with the annual Advent Giving Tree. This is an opportunity for St. Mary's parishioners to reach out during the Advent season to the working poor who would not have Christmas gifts without our help.
Parishioners celebrate the true meaning of Christmas by sharing gifts with families in our community who are less fortunate. Participation in this ministry can be as simple as removing an angel tag from the giving tree, purchasing the gift and returning it to the church. You can also be intimately involved with this ministry by assisting with the preparation of the angel tags, decorating the Advent Giving Tree, and/or sorting the gifts presented. All help is welcomed with this annual Advent ministry.
Please return your wrapped gift and tag no later than December 15, 2013.
