Our next Christian Service activity, the Giving Tree Project, will roll out next weekend with small Christmas trees and gift tags for suggested gifts to the organizations we support each year. We will also have the Wish Lists on our St. Clare website. Our gifts support local warming centers, senior centers and social service agencies assisting our most needy. Every year I am amazed at how each small donation becomes part of a beautiful Parish Team effort which eventually provides hundreds of much needed items to keep individuals and families safe and warm for the winter. Our collection date this year will be December 11-12, 2021. Like last year, you may have items shipped from Amazon to the Parish Offices. Also, we will be accepting gift cards for the various organizations as well. As you begin your Christmas shopping lists, please keep the St. Clare Giving Tree Project in mind and pick up something to share with someone less fortunate. I am blessed to have so much support from our Parish Community.
