As we prepare to enter the season of Advent, we prepare our hearts to welcome the greatest gift of all—Jesus! In gratitude for God’s abundant blessings, we have a beautiful opportunity to share love with children in need this Christmas.
SJTW will once again collect new toys for children in our local community, with all gifts lovingly shared through CROSS Services and Sharing and Caring Hands.
You’ll now find Angel Ornaments on the Christmas trees in St. Joe Hall and in the Faith Formation Gathering Space. Each ornament lists an age of a child—and it’s yours to keep! Please hang it on your own tree as a reminder to pray for your special recipient throughout the Advent season. You can also shop for a gift for the child on your ornament.
Most Wished for Toys:
For children: Sports equipment, art supplies, board games, building blocks, LEGOs, books, baby dolls
For teens: sweatshirts, sports balls, bracelet kits, board games
Please bring unwrapped gifts to the large Christmas boxes near the trees. Gift donation deadline is Saturday, December 13th. There’s no need to label your gift.Thank you for your generosity, prayers, and love as we prepare for the coming of Christ.
