The committee would like to offer a big "Thank You" to all parishioners who donated so generously to the Food Basket Program the last weekend in October. While donations can be made year round, this particular weekend collection represents the bulk of our annual budget. You may additinally help those in need in the Fountain Lake, Jessieville and Mountain Pine school districts by participating through the Angel Tree which will be in the Narthex the weekend prior to Thanksgiving (November 18/19). Select an angel and purchase the suggested gift. Return the wrapped gift to the tree the first weekend in December. Also, there is still time to volunteer to help in person by taking a family to shop for and deliver the food and gifts at Christmastime. The Food Basket Committee will provide you with the name and contact information for a family in need this holiday season. As a volunteer, you contact the family by phone, ask a few questions regarding their preferences and shop for perishable grocery items. Turn in your receipts to the committee forreimbursement. Delivery of the Angel Tree food and gifts is the week prior to Christmas. Please help be an integral part of the true spirit of Christmas.
