THANK YOU FOR ALL THE GENEROUS GIFTS UNDER OUR GIVING TREE!
A selection of these festive and plentiful gifts will be presented at our Giving Mass on Wednesday. After, a representative from St Vincent de Paul will come to collect our donations. I am very impressed with the number of gifts we have collected and proud of how generous everyone has been for those in our community who are less fortunate than ourselves. The last day for gifts to be bought in is Tuesday so over the weekend if you haven’t already given something and you are able, please pop something into your trolley to help bring joy this Christmas.
