Mass Schedule :: 8:30am, 12:10pm and 7:30pm
Needed: Eucharistic Ministers and Ushers for Christmas Masses
Additional Eucharistic Ministers will be needed to serve at the Christmas Masses. If you are an EM and would like to help, please add your name, contact information and the Mass you can assist with to the Christmas Eucharistic Minister sheet posted in the Sign-in Room.
Anyone who would like to assist as an Usher at Christmas Masses is requested to add their name, contact information and the Mass they will help with to the Volunteer Usher list, also in the Sign-in Room.
Christmas Candles
This year, we are once again offering a Loving Candle. This symbolic light is a beautiful way to remember our loved ones – both living and deceased – and will remain lit throughout the life of the candle (approximately a week). The candles will be available for a donation of $10.00.
They will be sold after all weekend Masses on December 10-11 and December 17-18, and will also be available in the Parish Office. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us at 631.661.3224, ext.121.
Christmas at Outreach
Once again, we are requesting gift cards for Christmas. We are asking that you take a tag from the Giving Tree with a specific gift card request for one of the families we will be assisting. The families will be able to use the gift cards for Christmas.
In order for them to have time to use them before Christmas, they will need to get them earlier, so we are requesting that any donation of gift cards be brought in by December 11. We are requesting gift cards to Target, Walmart, Amazon, Kohl’s, Macy’s and Old Navy.
Thank you for all the support you have given throughout the year. Your generosity is such a blessing to the families who come to us. Hopefully, their celebration of Christmas will be a bright spot in their lives that are many times filled with difficulty.
