President’s Message December 2001 Well, another Thanksgiving is in the record books and I hope that everyone took some time out to reflect on how much we have to be thankful for. Christmas
is right around the corner and we have a number of events scheduled for the
Men’s Club in December. On
December 1st and 2nd, we will have a table at the Parish
Ministry Fair, which is a parish wide rush party for all of the ministries.
If anyone would like to help us man the table at the ministry fair please
give me a call. My number is
835-3293. The
next big event in December is our monthly Men’s
Club Meeting. The date of our
meeting is Wednesday, December 5th at 7:30 in the cafeteria.
At this meeting we will hang our traditional Christmas Tree in the
playground. We would appreciate any
donations of tree trimming decorations that you may have. Our
Family Christmas Brunch will take
place on December 16th, 2001. The
brunch will be held in the school cafeteria after we attend the 11:00am mass as
a group. This is a very special
event that the whole family can enjoy. Please
plan to attend this event. The
Alter Society will Decorate the Church
for Christmas on December 17th, 18th and the 19th,
at 6:00pm. We have traditionally
helped the Alter Society in decorating the church and they really depend on us
to get the job done. Check your
calendar and we will have a sign up list at our meeting.
Please make plans to help decorate the church during one or all of these
nights. Due
to the holidays our December Board
meeting will take place in the cafeteria on Wednesday, December 19th
at 7:30pm. Please
make plans to put a deposit down on your $10,000.00
Raffle ticket before they are all gone.
Please help us promote the sale of these tickets to friends and family.
Remember that this is one of our major fundraisers of the year and we
should all support this event. An
event to look forward to at the end of January, is the Parish Blood Drive. This
year we will co sponsor the blood drive to benefit a child of one of our members
who has leukemia. We will have more
details in January, but get those veins ready to pump some blood. I want to wish you and your family a Merry and Holy Christmas, and a Happy and Prosperous New Year! Keep
Christ in Christmas Remember,
“We work hard, play hard, and pray hard.” Paul Da
