Christmas Stocking, Goody Bag or Tie Blanket for the Homeless

As we approach the holiday season, our parish Religious Education Program is asking parishioners if they would consider filling a Christmas stocking with items needed for someone homeless, or making a fleece tie blanket and/or a gift bag to be given to God’s elderly children residing at two local nursing homes. It is an honor and blessing to spread Christmas cheer and love to those lacking so much and to the beautiful residents and patients at Harmony and Avantara nursing care centers. Can you help our parish’s Religious Education Program reach our goal to gift 100 stockings; 150 blankets and 150 goody bags this year?
