Giving Tree
Christ the King's annual GIVING TREE project is back! This is a wonderful opportunity to help those less fortunate, and a great way to teach our children about the spirit of giving.
Here's how it works:
A Christmas tree in the Narthex
of the church is decorated with
different types of ornament
gift tags — each one
containing a gift
suggestion for someone
in need. To participate,
simply choose a tag,
purchase the suggested item, and bring the unwrapped gift (with the ornament/gift tag attached) to Church and place it under the tree. This year gift cards (to Stop and Shop, Walmart, CVS, Walgreens, etc) are especially needed. Gift cards may be left in the large box near the tree.
This year's gifts will be given to clients of St. Vincent de Paul Place and Madonna Place in Norwich, and local pediatric cancer patients.
Thank you all for your generosity!
