  A.  Schedule of upcoming events:  In an attempt to make our Advent special this year, we invite the community to focus on one gift to the less fortunate each of the 4 Sundays.  We will include a special reconciliation rite the 4th Sunday, Dec. 18.  See the flier:  Download Advent 2011

     Last Sunday, November 27, The 1st of Advent.   The gift: Food.  From Ken Cramer,

    John, our community contributed 265 pounds of food and one $20 check. Assuming the check would buy 5 pounds of food, and assuming we had 91 people in attendance yesterday, we averaged nearly three pounds of food per man, woman, and child.

I think we should be proud of ourselves!

  

    1.  This Sunday, December 4, 2nd Advent.  The gift: Toys for Collin County Child Advocacy Center with Beth helping.  For suggestions with toys: Download CCCACXmas11 11-25-11
