Dear Friends,
As we look forward to planning our holiday table and beginning to review the Christmas wish lists of our loved ones, we need to turn our attention to some of our neighbors who may not be in the position to plan and provide a holiday for their families because of their present circumstances. They are members of our immediate community....not folks states or a country away. Their children go to Mill City School.
The parish family of St. Mary of the Lake adopted several families last year and we are honored to repeat this tradition. We are asking that you might consider shopping for a member of a family this year. You will be provided with their wish list and reimbursement for your purchases. We ask that the gifts be wrapped if possible, but that’s not necessary. The gifts need to be brought in to the church and we will deliver them to the school on December 11th.
The second collection on November 25/26 is in support of this program.  Please think about taking part in this holiday ministry.  For more information, please call Marry Lou Franko (number in bulletin).  Thank you for your consideration.
God bless you!
