Children's Christmas Party makes the season bright!

Thank you to all who made the Children's Christmas Party on Saturday, December 21st a great success. Special gratitude goes to Jerrilyn Young and Virginia Clayton for organizing the event, to the dedicated team of volunteers who kept the event running smoothly, and to Santa and Mrs. Claus for traveling all the way from the North Pole to visit with the children. Thank you to everyone from the parish who generously donated toys for the party. Your donations ensured that children at the party and in other areas of the city were able to receive gifts at Christmas.Finally, tremendous thanks to St. Raymond School in Mount Prospect. St. Raymond School has generously donated toys for the party for years, but outdid themselves this year with a donation of nearly 600 toys! We were truly blessed by their kindness and care, and our gratitude is immeasurable.
