This Week at St. Patrick's
Christmas in July
Sunday, July 21, 2019

Join us on July 21 for an “Outback” Christmas in July!

The music will have a Christmas theme! We will celebrate by putting gifts under the tree to support our Malachi’s ministry. The Christmas festivities will continue after the 10:30 service with a barbecue lunch "outback".

We ask you to shop for the following items, which will be blessed during the 10:30 service:
- Backpacks
- Highlighters
- No. 2 pencils
- Folders
- Composition books
- Crayons
- Colored pencils
- Loose-leaf notebook paper
- Spiral notebooks

Lunch tickets will be available for a $5 donation, or entry is free with the donation of a school supply item to place under the tree. Proceeds will be used to purchase school supplies to benefit our Malachi’s community.

To help get us in the Christmas spirit, please bring 2 dozen Christmas cookies to share and wear festive Christmas attire!
