Take a leaf from the Faith Formation Tree! 
We are in need of a few key supplies.  If you are able to donate a few items, take a leaf off the tree in the Gathering Area and return it with the donated item by Sept. 8th.  Your gracious donations help keep the Faith Formation programs alive and thriving!
