About this ministry: This outreach ministry to the poor provides baby & children's items. At the same time, this ministry offers volunteers the joy of living out the words of Jesus, "Whatever you do for the least of my brothers & sisters, you do to me." Ornament tags with the type of gift needed are picked up by parishioners after masses one weekend in November and parishioners are asked to bring gifts to Campbell Hall by a certain date.
No training necessary and all are welcome to help!
There is a planning meeting & ornament tags can be made at home.
