Apostleship of the Sea
Beginning at Thanksgiving and through the Holidays, chaplains at the Port of Houston's Seafarer's Center deliver over 12,000 Christmas gift boxes to seamen who will not be with their families for Christmas. CDA members are now collecting shoe boxes and various non-perishable items to fill for delivery the second week of December. A list of suggested items, along with a basket for your generous donation, is at the back of church. You may also take your donations to the rectory.
Attention Men of God!
Men's prayer group is forming. Contact Jonathan Dooley (733-7740) or Rusty Theut ( 979- 481-3306) for more details.
The Altar Society is accepting donations for poinsettia plants to decorate the altars for Christmas. To donate or to remember someone special, use the envelopes at the entrances of the church or go by the Church Office. You may put your envelopes in the collection basket.
Saturday, December 8, is the Feastof the Immaculate Conception, a Holy Day of Obligation. The Mass times for this Feast Day are Friday at 8:15am and 6:00pm. There will be no Mass for this feast day on Saturday. The 6:00pm Saturday evening Mass is the Sunday Vigil, and therefore will not fulfill the Holy Day Obligation.
