This Tuesday’s drive Oct. 26 3pm-4pm in the Church parking lot is for our annual Christmas Gift Bags for our homebound neighbors at St. John/St. Ann’s Outreach Center. Our goal is to create 44 bags. We are collecting dish detergent, individual toliet paper, individual paper towels, box tissues, household cleaners, clorox wipes, laundry detergent and sponges. God bless you for your generosity. On Tuesday Nov. 2 we will be collecting personal care products to add to the gift bags: razors, shaving cream, shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste, toothbrushes, lotions and handsanitizer.

All are invited to show their solidarity with our Sister Parish in Mexico by praying 46 Rosaries in 46 Days in honor of our Lady of Guadalupe.
