The Giving Tree Ministry is an organized system in which a network of ministry members prepare and deliver gifts donated by parishioners of the parish to several pre-selected family and children organizations. It provides assistance to parents who can't afford to give their child a gift for Christmas or children who otherwise would go without on Christmas day, due to circumstances out of their control. Being a Giving Tree volunteer is a wonderful way to show love and compassion to those in need during the Christmas Season.
