CHRISTMAS GIVING TREE The traditional giving tree has been set up in the church, near the Sacred Heart altar. This is an excellent way for parishioners to show practical concern for the underprivileged. Christmas is always a difficult time for those who are out of work and unable to provide for their families.  As you shop for your own family Christmas why not put aside something for others, especially children, or even a special family gift.  The gifts you leave under the tree will be distributed to the needy by Monte Cecilia Housing Trust. Please take a card and give generously again this year. NB the last day for leaving your gifts is Sunday 10 December. Thank you
