Offertory Collection November 29, 2009: $5,202.50 |
“COINS FOR CRIBS” is an Advent outreach project at Holy Cross. As we prepare to celebrate Jesus’ Birth at Christmas, our parish will again collect coins during Advent that will be used to buy baby cribs. The money collected will be given to “Cradle of Hope,” a non- profit organization that works with mothers and infants in crisis. All coins received in the weekly collection plate will be given to this project. Bring extra coins to Church. If you prefer to give dollars or a check, put your gift in an envelope marked “Cradle of Hope.” The first week of Advent we collected $73.00 Thank you! |
