Fulfill a senior’s wish and purchase a needed item for those in our local nursing home, Ormond Nursing and Care Center. We have obtained the names of 150 residents. Their ‘wish’ will be placed on an ornament on our “GIVING TREE” which will be located at the entrance of the church. PLEASE return wrapped gifts with the ornament taped to the package in order to identify the recipient no later than Sunday, December 2, 2018. Gifts should be returned to the parish office or under the tree in the entrance to the church. Please do not take an ornament if you cannot meet the deadline. Fountain of Youth members will have a party with Santa and his elves to deliver the gifts.

Our CREW (Christians Ready, Eager and Willing) Service Ministry provides help to the in-firmed, elderly and shut in members of our Church Parish who may need an occasional helping hand. We can help with errands, meals and light housekeeping. We will also be happy to help with ordering pre-paid groceries on line and then delivering them. Also, you may know someone who just needs to have a visitor for an hour or so. We can also provide information on resources within St. Charles parish that provide transportation to and from doctor appointments and meal delivery on a regular basis. If you or someone you know is in need of this kind of assistance please call Kitty at our parish office (985-764- 6383) to arrange for this help. “For I was hungry and you gave me food. I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you clothed me, ill and you cared for me, I was in prison and you visited me…….” Matthew 25:35-36
