CHRISTMAS – A TIME FOR GIVING
The Holy Name St. Vincent de Paul Society invites each parishioner to contribute some canned food for our Christmas hampers. Let’s share our abundance with the less fortunate in our parish community. If you would like to sponsor an individual family, please phone Holy Name St. Vincent de Paul at 416-469-0842 and leave a message. Please make a contribution to St. Vincent de Paul Society so we can help others in your behalf.
TOYS FOR NEEDY CHILDREN
Once again we are asking parishioners to donate a new toy for needy children at Christmas. Pick up a dove from the Giving tree. The dove will indicate the age and sex of a child. Return the unwrapped gift for that child to the tree by Sunday, December 7th. Thank you. First Light Scout Band”
