| We wish to thank our Parish Family for their generosity. There were 351 ornaments on our Giving Tree and all were taken! These men, women, and children are grateful in receiving their gifts. You made these people joyful and happy during this Christmas season. I know the economy has not been the best, but so many of you have sacrificed to help those who are less fortunate. Christmas is sharing our love with each other. Thank you, and may your Christmas be blessed with many Blessings. Love, Father Joe |
