Share Christmas Blessings with Families in Need
One of the most meaningful ways to celebrate Christmas is by sharing our blessings with those who are under-resourced. This year, our parish will once again reach out to our neighbors in need by providing non-perishable food items for their Christmas Day celebrations.
You are invited to participate in one (or more!) of the following ways:
Pack a Bin at Home
Fill a lidded 18-gallon plastic container with non-perishable food items for a Christmas meal and drop it off at the church on Sunday, Dec. 7. A white box truck will be parked outside the Parish Center Gym at the main campus to receive your bin donations. If the truck fills up, please place containers in the Parish Center Gym.
Suggested items include:
- Boxed mashed potatoes
- Stuffing mixes
- Canned soups, vegetables, and fruit
- Cranberry sauce
- Gravy mixes
- Brownie, cake, or cookie mix
- Muffin or quick bread mix
- Add a personal touch by including:
- A note of encouragement
- An inspirational Bible verse
- Christmas well-wishes from your family
Family Service Activity: Help Pack Bins
Bring the whole family and join us on Sunday, Dec. 7, after the morning Masses (9 and 10:45 am), in the Parish Center Gym. Together as a parish community, we will assemble Christmas meal bins in a joyful atmosphere of service, gratitude, and hope.
Donate Individual Food Items
If you are unable to fill an entire bin, you can still help! Please bring any of the listed non-perishable items to church, and we will combine them to create complete Christmas meal bins for families.
Thank you for helping us share the love and joy of Christ with our neighbors this Christmas.
