The Good Samaritan Angel Tree
A Parish Wide Advent Project
Ann Backus will be putting the Angel Tree up in Henslee Hall very soon. Please be on the lookout for it!

This year we will be supporting 7 children from Family Promise, and a needy, sweet family with 6 young children who live in a small trailer. The mom’s request for herself was cleaning supplies; That request nearly broke my heart.
Gifts need to be returned by Sunday, December 15th. Please return wrapped, if at all possible. Also, please return all gifts with the tag from the tree on the gift so I can keep track of what gift is what.
This year I will add the child’s name to the tags on the tree so you can also make a gift tag to go on the package. (But, I still need the tag from the tree on the package.)
We need everyone’s help to get gifts bought for all 13 children. I’d also like to get gift cards for the parents of the 6 children. Thanks!
