The Annual Advent Gift Drive begins this weekend at all Masses. This year, we are working with the following:
St. Ambrose Family Inn: providing shelter and support to homeless families
Julie’s Family Learning Program: an education program serving low income young women and their children
The New England Home for the Deaf
The Walden School at the Learning Center for the Deaf
Cards listing the specific needs of these groups are available at all Masses at the back of the church through November 27. Gifts will be collected at the Advent Party on December 4 after Masses in the MacKenzie Center. If you are unable to attend the Advent Party, you may drop gifts off at the Parish Office during normal business hours. Please securely attach the 3x5 cards to your gifts when returning them.
Thank you so much for your generosity in providing for these agencies in such hard economic times. —Marty & Michelle Solomon, Gift Drive Coordinators
