3. Operation Christmas Child is a hands-on project that brings joy and hope to children in desperate situations around the world through gift-filled shoeboxes packed by local churches and anyone who wants to make an impact to a child in need. The mission of Operation Christmas Child is to demonstrate God’s love to needy children around the world, and to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.

   Last year, our church collected 75 shoeboxes. This year, our goal is 100 shoeboxes! Please support us and help us reach this goal!

   Collection dates will be Sundays, Nov 4^th & 11^th. You may bring your gift-filled shoebox(es), including $10 donation in cash of cheque to cover shipping cost inside the shoebox(es), to our Sunday School collection centre in the basement hall. Please DO NOT put any toothpaste or candies in the shoebox(es). Please refer to the poster for details.

5. Support Catholic Education - As Catholic, we should be supporting Catholic Education. Make Sure Your School Support Designation is English Separate (Catholic) on your Property Tax Assessment. It’s a powerful message in support of Catholic education. Even if you have been an English Separate supporter in the past, the designation DOES NOT follow you when you relocate. Every time you move or if there is a change of ownership, it is essential that you register yourself as an English Separate Catholic school supporter. Please verify that you are registered as an English Separate school supporter by checking the assessment section of your Tax Bill or Property Assessment Notice or your Voter Information Card received during an election year. To register or change your direction of school support, please fill out a form in the narthex and return it to the Catholic District School Board.
