Thanksgiving Day Collection
At the Thanksgiving Day Mass,
the collection will be taken for Saint Francis Manchester.
This is a social ministry of the Diocese of Richmond which serves seniors
& disabled adults of limited financial means by offering life-enhancing
care and services designed to promote physical, mental, emotional, social,
and spiritual well-being in a home-like environment where independence,
dignity, and self-worth are nurtured.
Please make checks out Saint Benedict Catholic Church with St. Francis Manchester in the memo section.
Saint Benedict is partnering again this year with Commonwealth Catholic Charities to assist with their Angel Tree program, providing the children under their care a memorable Christmas experience. The foster care program of CCC provides care to children who are victims of human trafficking and refugee children, who remain in the custody of the CCC until the age of 21. We will also provide gift cards for mothers at Mary's Choice RVA. Mary’s Choice provides a Christ-centered program of guidance and support for women facing a crisis during pregnancy.
Please return the gifts under the tree no later than the weekend of December 6-7. Please DO NOT wrap the presents, but bring them in a gift bag with the angel attached to the outside of the bag. For the gift cards, please place these in the marked box. Anything given is greatly appreciated.
