BR Christmas Miracle
Warm Hearts, Warm Homes
As the angel's proclaimed at Jesus' birth "Glory to God in the highest and on earth peace and goodwill toward all people!" (Lk 2:14).
With Advent quickly approaching and the Christmas season drawing near, we take this time to reflect in gratitude for the gifts we have. We extend the peace and goodwill we have received from our faith in Christ to help our brothers and sisters in the community in need. Many families in our own community experience financial need and are struggling, especially with the high cost of living.
This year our campaign “Warm Hearts, Warm Homes” will be running from Monday November 19 to Friday December 13th.
Through this initiative, we will raise money to support over 40 Bishop Ryan Families in financial need. Last year we raised over $7000 and those funds were used to buy gift cards for food and gifts for each family.
You can support in a number of ways, depending on your comfort level:
-
Bake Sale: Please support our Bake Sale by donating a baked good or purchasing a delicious treat on Friday December 6th
-
Gift Cards: Students can purchase gift cards and bring them to Chaplain’s office (with card activation slip).
-
Cash: Each Period 1 class will be collecting money. The Christmas Miracle committee will purchases gift cards with the funds.
-
If your child does not have a period 1 class, but would like to support our campaign, drop by your donation to the Chaplain's office or through cash online.
Your prayers and financial support are greatly appreciated.
May Christ's peace be with you this Advent and Christmas season!
