Giving Tree & Building Permit

During this Year of Faith Pope Benedict often speaks of the "New Evangelization."  It could be considered as proclaiming the message of the Gospel in our words and deeds to the culture in which we live which may already have a large number of "nominal" Christians.  This culture - considered by some as already Christian, needs to hear once again with renewed vigor the saving message of the Gospel.  This Evangelization challenges us to live the corporal and spiritual works of mercy:

By working with our community we can affirm the aspects which support a culture of life - and one of those ways we work with CCS and the Santa Fund is our own "Giving Tree" at Holy Family Parish.  This Sunday at all the Masses there will be information shared about how we can support those who experience poverty this year at Christmas.

On another (related) note - The Exchange - the new food support hub that CCS is working on received its building permit today! 
Monty Laskin - the CEO of CCS said:
"With thanks to [those] that believed ... and who toiled long and hard through the ... drawings and revised drawings and revised drawings again!"
Construction has started!
