St. Vincent de Paul
CHRISTMAS BASKET FOOD DRIVE
The SJV St. Vincent de Paul society is in great need of your help to provide Christmas baskets to all of the families in need. Donations of non-perishable food may be placed in the St. Vincent de Paul box in the Narthex during open hours. Checks made out to SJV SVDP or cash donations are always welcome and may be turned in to the parish office. THANK YOU for your support.
Catholic Community Services
2020 APPEAL FOR THE POOR
The CCS Appeal for the Poor Campaign kicks off this weekend. We encourage you to watch the video above and prayerfully consider how you might join the thousands of volunteers and staff this year in supporting our neighbors in need. Is it through prayer, advocacy, volunteerism, or a generous donation?

For those who have never given, an anonymous donor has given $10,000 to incentivize new parish donors. The first 100 new households who give at least $100 will have $100 of their gift matched - doubling your impact! Your gift, no matter the amount, will help provide Hope & Light this holiday season.
YEAR END TAX DONATIONS
All monetary donations for 2020 need to be in the parish office or postmarked by December 31 in order to be applied to this calendar year. The parish office will be closed between Christmas and New Year’s Day.
