Our annual Advent tradition of the Giving Tree begins November 19. Coordinated by Marcy Fleming, this community outreach provides those in need with a little brighter Christmas (this may be the only gifts they receive). As in the past the “wish lists” were obtained from Catholic Charities of Portage County. We have 50 families with 173 individuals for which to provide gifts (feel free to take more than one!). To participate, please select a tag (remember to sign the list), shop, and return your wrapped gifts to the Narthex with the tag securely attached and visible by Sunday, December 10. Gifts should not exceed $25 per person (includes gift cards). Assembling of the family gift bags will take place on Monday, December 11. To volunteer to help with this project or for more info., please contact Marcy ([email protected], 330-274-2253, or 205-401-8548).
