Angel Tree:   We need help and would greatly appreciate volunteers to help sort gifts on Tuesday, December 16th from 10:30 am to 1:00 pm and wrap gifts on Wednesday, December 17th from 10:30 am to 1:00 pm. There will be sign up sheets outside after every Mass.  Fr. Ray wants to thank all those volunteers in advance. 

Bereavement Support Group:  If you are suffering the loss of a loved one, please come so we may share and strengthen each other.  The Support Group will help you feel less isolated and alone.  It may be helpful just knowing that others understand your difficulties and can be there to offer encouragement and support.  The goal of this Support Group is to offer all participants seeking support through the grief process, a safe and nurturing environment in which to share their struggles, feelings, and growth.  This is a "Support Group," not therapy or a social group.  Here, members share similar struggles over issues related to grief.  Meetings are scheduled every Monday at 10:00 am in the Parish Classroom.  Call Robin or Reuben Gruber at 235-1368 for any additional information.

Lectors Training Session:  A week from tomorrow, Dec. 15th, at 7:00 pm in Church.  All Lectors must attend!
