Annually, during the season of Advent, the Children's Liturgy Group bring Christmas gifts for distribution to this charity which seeks to help children and families in crisis both at home and overseas. The gifts which the children bring are distributed by the charity to needy families in the West of Scotland, in time for Christmas. For some children, this may be the only present that they receive, and the charity are always extremely grateful for any gifts that are donated from our Parish. It is appreciated, especially at this time of year, that there are many demands placed upon your generosity. We invite all individuals/families in the Parish who are able, to participate in this initiative. You are asked to bring a gift - suitable for a boy or girl (or both) aged between birth and sixteen years of age. The gift should be wrapped and a gift tag placed on the outside stating whether the gift is for a boy/girl or both and the age group the gift is suitable for. The gifts will be taken to the charity at the end of the 10am Mass on Sunday 8th December. Please place your gift in the box in the Church porch by this date. If you require any further details, please do not hesitate to contact Catherine Senior (email: [email protected] or 07555-094304) for further information. Many thanks in anticipation of your support for our appeal.
