Christmas is coming up fast! Do you know a family or individual that could use a little assistance to make the holiday brighter? St. Paul Catholic Women are collecting names to consider for our Christmas Giving program. You become God's hands and feet by letting the office know names for consideration. Thank you.
Thank all of you who participated in the yard sale in any way. St. Paul Catholic Women have already purchased a new incense burner for the Church and new vestments for Father Tom with proceeds from the yard sale. Those proceeds also fund our Christmas Giving Program and other parish activities.
