It's Angel Tree time again! Starting the first Sunday in Advent, aChristmas tree in the back of the church will have angels hanging on its branches. This year, we have 35 children from Angel Tree, including prisoners' children who have been in Arizona as a result of hurricanes Katrina and Rita. There are requess for gift cards from local stores so that children can choose something they want. If you buy clothing, please include the gift receipt so that exchanges can be made. Please sign the list on the table at the back of the church so that I know wgo has taken each child's tag. We are asking you to bring your gifts, unwrapped, to the church office or to the tree on Sundays before or after Mass.
