WITH SINCERE GRATITUDE…

Through this Advent Season we have had a remarkable number of people ask what they can do for ‘others’. So much has been given to St. Colette Parish and far beyond the reach of our parish because of your kindness, There is no doubt that Christmas touches the heart in so many ways! Please know how grateful I am for this parish and its outreach to others. God must be so pleased!

While it has been a difficult and challenging year we have managed to keep alive the spark of faith that is the hallmark of our Church. Limited as we are by the COVID we have tried to keep something of a schedule to incorporate us to the Family of St. Colette. I am grateful for the Christmas Concert and for the Little Christmas Village. I am grateful to Sara for organizing the Village and to our young people of Celebration for bringing it all together. I am grateful for the Concert and the members of our Music Ministry….with a special welcome back home to Chris!

To all who have helped prepare the Church for Christmasto all who have done so much for us a wholehearted, huge Thank You!

Christ is here! He is present to all….He is the ‘present’ we share and the gift that unites us….there is no finer!

The Little Christmas Village was a wonderful opportunity for the little ones to visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus. With all kinds of safety precautions in the works it turned out a grand success. Thanks to the Celebration Team for their help, to the Daughters of St. Colette for their assistance and to Sara for helping to organize the day. To all who worked and helped and brought their Christmas Joy —Thank YOU!
