St. Paul Giving Tree
Thank you to all who purchased gifts and gave so generously to the Giving Tree! We are so grateful for your support, which make a real difference in the lives of others each year at Christmas time.
And thank you to the Religious Ed students and families who helped move and sort the gifts in the Parish Hall so they would be ready for pick up!
St. John Christmas Wish
Through the overwhelming kindness and generosity of our parish, the Christmas Wish was able to provide gifts and outfits to more than 345 children from 116 families in Brockton, Lowell, Roxbury, and Wellesley. We also raised enough donations for each family to get a $200 grocery gift card. And in addition we were able to donate another 336 $25 grocery gift cards to Julie’s Family Learning Program in South Boston.
The Christmas Wish has been running for almost 30 years and a program like this is only possible due to the incredible support of our parishioners who donate gifts, money, and time each year!
An extra special thank you to our delivery team – Bill Logan and Steve Dufour and their helpers.
Thank you for the amazing response this year. We are beyond grateful for your continued support.
