BIG Sunday this Week

What happens on BIG Sunday?
We celebrate the month's birthdays and anniversaries.
We donate to Citizens for Humane Action animal shelter.
We contribute to the pastor's discretionary fund (Above and Beyond).
If you don't have pet supplies for CHA, then you can write a check and the Quayles will take your monetary donation. Contributing to the discretionary fund?  You can put your donation in the offering plate (this fund supports individuals and families with critical financial needs).
God bless you for your generosity!

Christmas Sharing

Here is a great opportunity to make a difference for God and spread Christmas cheer at the same time!  With St. Ann's guidance, we are sponsoring families in need at Huber Ridge Elementary School in Westerville. The deadline for providing gifts is next Sunday, December 10th.

Ann has the names of children and sizes, so please contact her by phone or by email to volunteer to help. Also, you can check Fr. Kevin's email to you for this information.
