SAINTS PETER AND PAUL CATHOLIC SCHOOL
Merry Christmas! Everyone at Ss. Peter & Paul School wishes you a very Merry
Christmas and thanks you for your support all year long. Without the support of

COME ONE, COME ALL! It’s time to decorate the church for Christmas! Your help is
needed! We will be decorating the church on December 21 beginning after the
11:00AM Mass. All are welcome to help! It will be a great time, don’t miss it!
INFORMATION ON GOLD CHALICES—Through the generosity of the 4th Degree
Knights of Columbus, our parish has 8 chalices for use at Mass to offer the Precious Blood
of Christ to the people. Unfortunately, despite a relatively recent re-plating of gold on the
chalices, this gold layer has worn off the inside of the chalices again and must be renewed.
The cost will probably be $250-$350 per chalice and will be done after January 1. If
anyone would like to contribute to this necessary project, please bring your donation to the
Parish Office at your convenience, or drop an envelope in the collection basket marked “Chalices”.
SSPP SCHOOL ROOF UPDATE— Financially, SSPP has donations of $32,310 in
cash for the roof replacement. We are still gratefully accepting any donations you
wish to provide for this needed repair. Thank you to all those who have contributed to
date. Your generosity is very much appreciated.
Thank You! To all who have contributed through your Christmas Flowers envelope. We will use the money to purchase poinsettias, trees, and other decorations for the
church. A list of donors and memorials will be published in the December 28 bulletin.
Are you constantly forgetting your Offering Envelopes at home? Do you go to write a
check and find you don’t have a check available? Never seem to have cash on you?
We have the solution! How about making your contributions via automatic withdraw
from your bank account? If you want more information, please contact the parish office.
REMINDER: It’s not too late to return your Time, Talent and Treasure forms! Forms may be
dropped into the collection baskets at Mass, sent with your student to school, left at the Parish Office, or mailed back. Thank you. Extra forms are available at each entrance of church.

Living God’s Word: Each year in this brief season we do come close to a bit of innocence as
we find ourselves seeking ways to make this world a better place. Little wonder then that even

expectations, once hung by the chimney with care, bulging with life.
