Gifts with angels attached will be collected in the Narthex at weekend Masses December 2/3, 9/10 & 16/17 or at the Parish Office during the week.  Certificates can be mailed in the envelope provided.
     Please note:  in order for gifts to be delivered before Christmas--the deadline is December 17.
OR (Outreach) gift certificates will be accepted through the end of the year.
     Thank you for your generosity--this project is a      success only with your help.

NEEDED:  A long-time parishioner is still in need of a ride to Mass--4:30 p.m. Saturday or 11:30 Sunday--even if you could provide this ministry once in a while, she would be so appreciative.  Call Anne Marie (651-633-8333) if you can help.

BEFRIENDERS PROVIDE ONE-TO-ONE LISTENING AND CARING& If you or someone you know needs a befriender please call Anne Marie.  This is a very special ministry of one-to-one listening and caring.  Some times people need Befriender ministry for a short while during a transition or sometimes the relationship is more long term.

Backpacking Adventure:
To the proud outdoorsmen, who thrive on backcountry, wilderness camping . . . and hiking through scenic,      rugged mountain passes, I extend this invitation.  I will be leading an eight day backpacking excursion to the          Canadian Rockies next summer.  Any male from the ages of roughly 14 years and on up is welcome.  The dates for the trip are: leaving 9:30 a.m. Sunday August 5th, and  returning 8:00 p.m. Tuesday August 14th.  Party is  probably limited to about 20 men.  If you are interested please contact me (Fr. Michael) at the parish office.  An information meeting is scheduled for 12:30 p.m. , Sunday, January 28th, in the parish office.  The cost will be cheap, but the experience rich! 

THANK YOU
