Yes, it’s Christmas flower donation time. The monies collected will not only cover the cost of the flowers and greenery that will enhance our four church sanctuaries at Christmas, but will also help with floral costs throughout the liturgical year.
You can donate in honor or memory of loved ones and friends. This can be done in two ways:
You may submit your donation online via the ‘Donate Online’ page on our parish website. In the ‘Memo’ text box please type the names of those you are honoring/remembering.
You also have the option of using the ‘Christmas Flowers’ envelope found in your offering packet. Please remember to include with your offering, the name(s) of the one(s) you wish to honor/remember, before placing the envelope in the weekend offering basket.
In an effort to address and lessen situations that have occurred in the past, please adhere to the following:
Please PRINT legibly in order to avoid misspellings if the dedication/memorial is to be listed in the bulletin.
Please use the ‘Christmas Flowers’ envelope you received in your offering packet and limit the number of names to those that will fit on the preprinted lines. (For example, if you are memorializing your parents, instead of listing them as John Doe on one line and Jane Doe on another, consider writing it as "Mr. & Mrs. John Doe" or "John and Jane Doe". Also, a listing of "Uncle George, Aunt Mary, and cousins Janie, Tommy, Pete & Zuzu Bailey", could simply be requested as "Members of the Bailey Family")
NOTE - Names written on additional pieces of paper will not be accepted.
The deadline for making a submission is Monday, December 4, 2023. The minimum donation to have a person listed in the bulletin is $5.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation and generosity.
