Thank you to all who have reached out last week to give Christmas to children in foster care or whose families are in crisis.
There is still time to donate to our adjusted ANGEL TREE.
Instead of asking parishioners to shop for a specific child, we are seeking donations in order to purchase gift cards for our many families in need. We will be accepting donations beginning now through December 1. Parents will receive gift cards for their children by early December to allow them time to shop before Christmas. All donations can be mailed to the Ascension Church office or dropped in the collection basket. Make checks payable to "Ascension Social Concerns" noting "Angel Tree" in the memo line.
SOCIAL CONCERNS CHALLENGE
A very generous donor has gifted Social Concerns and our Food Pantry with a large gift. The only condition of this gift, is to challenge our community to raise $25,000 for Social Concerns by December 31, 2020. We are happy to report that, as of this posting, we have received $28,100 in donations with a generous gift of $5,000 received after the 11:30 am Mass last week. A big Thank You to all of you who have helped to exceed our goal.
