Christmas Cards are Still Avaliable for You to Send to Loved Ones

Every year, the parish prepares a special Christmas card that we make available for you to send to your family and friends. This year’s card is quite beautiful and includes your loved ones in our nine days of Christmas Novena prayers. These cards are available after all the weekend Masses and at the parish office.

Outstanding Food Drive

Our November food drive and turkey raffle were outstanding this year. With the leadership of second grade and all other grades doing their part, our school collected over 1400 cans and boxes of food for local residents in need. This is about 600 items more that our usual collection, an increase of 75%. In addition, the turkey raffle raised $135.36 in cash that will be donated to a local food bank. Thank you to everyone who donated this year. Our school did well with this “Prayer of Giving” and I appreciate how selfless our families were this year in helping those less fortunate. Congratulations to the turkey raffle winners: Mary Padilla, Ezekiel Ritchey, and Jennifer Sanchez.

Many patrons made a point to let us know how much they enjoyed themselves. We appreciate the support of the school and parish families who attended and those who made donations. With everyone’s help and support our school raised over $30,000. We are very happy for the success of this year’s auction during these difficult economic times. This is a breakdown of finances from this year’s auction:
