Our parish will once again be partnering with the Salvation Army to provide gifts and meals for families in need, right here in Musctine. Take an ornament from the tree, purchase the requested gift, and place the unwrapped item back under the tree. You can also grab a shopping bag and fill it with requested items to help a family in need have a special Christmas breakfast. Unwrapped gifts and meal bags must be returned by December 15.
Join us for an event to explore the spiritual meanings behind Advent and Christmas traditions and discover practical ways to build these traditions in your own home.
Location: Mazzuchelli Center, Saints Mary & Mathias Catholic School
Presenter: Matthew Flynn, Director of Formation and Evangelization
