Poinsettias for the Homebound
By St Mary Administrator @ 9:40 AM :: 260 Views :: Article Rating :: Human Concerns
 
Each year, as part of Advent, parishioners have the opportunity to share with the homebound of the parish. Next weekend, December 13-14, envelopes will be placed in the pews, for donation of money, to be used towards the purchase of poinsettias for those who are Homebound or in nursing homes from our parish. And again, because of parishioner generosity (last Advent/Christmas), we collected enough money to buy flowers for all Catholics, who are in a nursing home, who are homebound, or who are on the Communion list. Each poinsettia costs $6.75, but any amount will be greatly appreciated. On December 20-21, parishioners will be invited to pick up a plant and deliver poinsettias to homebound members of the parish, during that week. If you know of a parishioner that needs to be placed on the list, please call Mary McHugh or the parish office. Thanks from your Human Concerns Committee.
