Due to the COVID-19 situation we have decided to change the normal procedure for the Christmas gift project we participate in each year. Instead of handing out names and asking you to buy gifts, this year we would ask that you donate the money you would have spent on a gift or gifts and drop your envelope into the collection basket. Write any checks to St. Patrick’s Church and the money will be sent to the outreach department of the school who distributes the gifts and they then will purchase gifts for the children. We normally ask you to spend $15/gift so consider this when you offer your donation. Thank you so much.
