This year, our annual Giving Tree event will be held on the weekends of Nov. 26-27 and Dec. 3-4. Again, this year some changes have been made by local agencies: -St. Vincent de Paul’s Little Drummer program is asking only for gift cards from Wal-Mart, Target and Burlington Coat Factory; -St. Francis of Assisi, our sister parish in Milwaukee will accept any gift items for children and teens; -Elizabeth House, a residential maternity and parenting program that supports pregnant women in Madison will accept any items for new mothers and children ages infant to five and -Babies and Beyond will accept any gift items for children ages birth through five. Simply bring an unwrapped gift or gift card to the church on either weekend and place in the bins located at the church entrances. We will also take donations of wrapping paper.
