Gift Tags for “holiday wishes” for the following children listed will be given out at the Nov. 21/22 and Nov. 28/29 weekend masses. All Gift Tags items are due back to Sacred Heart by Sunday, December 6th. It is a tight window…I know! Call me if you want to be assigned a Gift Tag now, or to make a donation.

All gift cards are requested to be uniform in the amount of $50

Cash/Check donations are welcome in any amount. Please make checks payable to Sacred Heart with the memo field indicating Covenant to Care. Please mark all envelopes attention: Claire Crane

It is helpful if clothes come with a gift receipt for an exchange, if the item does not fit.

Do not wrap anything, as the state must inspect everything. Please put your items in a gift bag. Teenagers that are just asking for the gift card…please feel free to have fun adding in a couple of inexpensive accessories or a CVS/Walgreens card for make-up, etc. Food is not allowed. I am always amazed at everyone’s creativity and generosity. I encourage families to share a gift tag. The goal is to end up with an even distribution between siblings in a family. We all know how brothers and sisters compare!

Please do not assign yourself a gift tag… you must call me or physically pick up a tag on the dates listed above. THANK YOU!

God Bless,
Claire Crane

The 3½ Stories of Christmas!

This Sunday, December 28 at 4:00pm the Christmas Angel himself (performed by soap opera actor Frank Runyeon) will tell us The 3 ½ Stories of Christmas.

Children and adults will be delighted as all the parts of the Christmas story are tied together for the first time: from the light of Creation to the manger in Bethlehem, from the origin of Santa Claus, to the secret of the Christmas angel himself!

Admission is a free will offering. Refreshments will be served after the performance.
