Community Bulletin Board

Christmas Eve Mass: 4:00 P.M.  Welcome!

The Mass after Christmas, Dec. 30: No Mass.  Rosemary & I will be in Mexico.

Two questions:

• What do you think about putting together a community directory with just names, perhaps email addresses, phone number, even address?
• What about a food drive Christmas Eve?  When St. James Parish said they did not want our donations any more, I forgot about the project.  But, we have Food Banks in Plano & Richardson, and people have said they would like to contribute.

Tree Project update: maybe in December?  Waiting to hear from Collin Co. Child Advocacy Center, Park & Los Rios.

See you Sunday.

Special Announcement: We have moved to Sigler

After celebrating week after week for 10 years, PISD is asking us to move over to Sigler on Janwood.  Apparently it is quite expensive to A/C the large cafetorium at Vines.  Sigler will be more economical.  

Check the map:    View this photo

A happy marriage is the union of two good forgivers.
