Giving Tree
Christ the King's annual GIVING TREE project begins on the weekend after Thanksgiving.
This is the Giving Tree's 29th year!
Starting on November 24–25,
the feast of Christ the King, a Christmas
tree will be on display in the Narthex,
decorated with four different types
of ornaments — each representing
one of the following organizations:
-
St. Mark's Neighbor's Aide,
St. Paul, Virginia -
St. Vincent de Paul Place,
Norwich, Connecticut -
The New Life Prison Ministry
-
Madonna Place
The ornaments will contain gift suggestions for clients of these organizations. Please choose an ornament (or as many as you wish) and purchase the suggested gift(s). Bring the unwrapped gift (with the ornament attached) to Church during the first two weeks of December and place under the tree.
If you would like to do more than just purchase a gift, the Giving Tree program could use some volunteers to help out. Please contact the office for more information.
