Demonstrate your thankfulness this season
Each holiday season, St. Louis Parish
anticipates and relies on a seasonal increase
in contributions. It is through the donations
of every individual and family in the
congregation that we are able to carry on our
work now and throughout the year.
Senior Thanksgiving Dinner Preparations
It has been a long tradition at St. Louis Catholic School to
provide a Thanksgiving Dinner for the seniors of our parish
and neighborhood community. Families are asked to
bring food items, while our teachers use their planning
periods to prepare the meal. All seniors are welcome to
attend on Tuesday November 25th at 4:00 PM. Please call the
school office at 303-762-8307 for reservations.
If you need a convenient way to make
recurring contributions or plan to make an
additional gift before the end of the year, we
encourage you to check out our electronic
giving options. As the pace of life speeds up
around the holidays, you may find
electronic giving a most welcome way to
make contributions.
Toy Donation Jeans Day is Friday, December 5th
To celebrate the Feast of St. Nicholas on Saturday December
6th, we will be having a Jeans Day on Friday, December 5th.
Each scholar is asked to donate a small new toy that will be
collected for Father Woody’s Christmas party for the Poor on
December 14th. This program provides holiday meals and
toys for families and children less fortunate than us.
To set up a recurring giving schedule, visit
us online at www.StLouiscatholicparish.org
and locate the Online Giving button. Or if
it's easier, complete a paper authorization
form and return it to the church office.
Thank you for your generosity and support!
