Advent Calendars
The tradition continues! The Little Flower Advent Calendar Sale is set for Nov 23 and 24. We will be selling calendars after all Masses and at the CDA bazaar.
Parishioners can buy a calendar for their family and friends or buy one to be donated to children in need of Christmas cheer (distributed by the hospital and local charities / organizations that serve families).
This year we are also taking money raised and buying Christmas items for St. Vinnies and FISH of Albany. The girls will prepare the gifts and have a part in delivering/distributing them.
We are exited to get the parish involved in spreading love and joy this holiday season!
