Annunciation Catholic School:  Annunciation is a vibrant Catholic school with many families struggling to meet daily needs. To help them out during this season, we are asking for gift cards. Their favorite shopping places are: WallMart, Target, King Soopers and Dicks Sporting Goods. We are hoping to give each family $25 cards. You can make donations for cards on the Holy Family website:  https://tinyurl.com/HFChristmasDonation or drop cards in the bin in the back of church.

There are fliers in the back of church with more details!

Thanks A Brunch to the Holy Family Community!

Once again you came through with generosity of time and work to provide an amazing brunch for our Holy Family Plaza neighbors. Everyone played an important part, making delicious food and treats, decorating, serving and hosting, sitting and connecting with residents and even helping to spiff up the dining room as we finished. What teamwork! We served 60+ residents, nearly double the number from last year. I guess the word is out regarding what good cooks we have! The residents were so grateful! A special thank you to Shirely Brisnehan and Mary Jo Costello for leading the charge! None of this happens without the help of the Holy Family Community. Thank you!
