Through your generous support we have once again been able to provide a Christmas of hope and joy to many of the poorest of our community.

Over 580 family members including 380 children experienced a more joyful and loving Christmas as a result of your contributions and efforts.

The schools, St. Mary’s, Pope John Paul II, St. Dominic and St. Thomas Aquinas adopted 50 families this Christmas; members of St. Mary’s Parish (and businesses) adopted 80 families; 55 children received toys and clothing through the Angel Program sponsored by members of the parish.

In addition to these efforts, through your monthly contributions 205 Food Hampers were purchased and distributed.

A special thanks to EMS and Fire Protection Services for delivering 146 of these hampers!

Thanks again to all the generous individuals and organizations that responded to a real need in our community.

May the joy and love of our Lord Jesus Christ continue to be with you!
