Adoptions
We Need Your Help!
We still have many angels in need of adoption this Christmas!
Please consider adopting an angel and participating in this wonderful
opportunity to give a gift to someone in need. During the week of
November 23- 30 you can adopt an Angel by completing our online adoption form or stopping by the Parish Center after mass on the weekend of
November 28-29.
As of Monday, we still have:
• 60 Parish or veteran family children who need to be adopted
• 90 Frisco Family Services children/teen gift requests
• 25 Respect Life requests
• 56 AIDS Outreach requests
• 35 Friends of Los Ninos, Honduras Ministry
This year’s program includes over 150 families from our Parish, local
Veterans, and St. Vincent de Paul who have requested assistance.
Additionally, we’ll support parish ministries and outreach such as
Nursing Home, Homebound, Respect Life, AIDS Outreach Ministry,
Frisco Family Services, and Friends of Los Ninos.

Not sure you can shop for an angel this year?
You can make a donation through Faith Direct specifically for Angel Tree and one of our volunteers can shop for you instead.
We Need Volunteers!We need volunteers for the weekends of November 14-15, November 21-22, December 5-6, and December 12-13. Teens needing/wanting service hours are invited to help during 11/14-11/15, 11/21-11/22, Gift Drop off Weekend 12/5-12/6, and Family Pick Up Day 12/13.

Drive thru angel gifts drop up - weekend of december 5/6
Drop your Angel Tree gifts off using our Drive Thru, Low or No Contact drop off in the west parking lot (large parking lot facing Eldorado Pkwy) Saturday, 12/5 and Sunday, 12/6 before and after all Masses. We MUST receive all gifts during these two days. You will drive through our drop off point which will be very visible (bright lights and trucks). There will be no need to get out of your car. Our volunteers will remove your gifts from the trunk of your car. Please be sure to clearly and securely mark your gifts with your Angel’s ID number and/or tag/sticker we provided to you, and don’t forget to bring 1 roll of gift wrap per angel. GIFT SORTING DAY (VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!) - DECEMBER 12
We will need approximately 32-36 volunteers on Saturday, December 12 to help sort all the individual gifts into the families and nursing homes receiving our support. We will be doing this in the Education wing in all 8 classrooms so that we can keep our work groups small and adhere to social distancing. Families with middle school or high school students are encouraged to volunteer. Are you great with details, organization and taking notes? We’d love to have you as a volunteer! Please contact Christine at cdcurtin@yahoo.com if you are interested. Family gifts pick up day - december 13
Gifts will be ready for pickup December 13th so families can prepare for Christmas. All families will receive an email and/or postcard with their time slot for pickup in early December. |
