THANKSGIVING
Thanksgiving Day Mass is an opportunity to help those who do not have enough to eat. Please share your blessings with those who are hungry by bringing canned goods as an offertory. Items such as rice and canned meats would be greatly appreciated. Most of us don’t know what it is like to be hungry, but there are families here in High Point who know the pangs of hunger every day. Please help by being grateful for what we have and sharing our abundance with others. Join us for Mass at 10:00 AM on Thanksgiving Day, November 26.
CHURCH & SCHOOL OFFICES will close at Noon on Wednesday, November 25, and will be closed on Thursday, November 26, & Friday, November 27.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
Come transform our worship space for Advent. On Friday, November 27, beginning at 1:00 PM we will change the Art and Environment. Can you lift a ladder, wreath or box, carry banners or climb a ladder?
This is the day after Thanksgiving – students needing service hours are welcome, too! Family groups are ideal. Volunteers MUST confirm in advance this winter, so coordinators can plan for socially-distanced teams to work in shifts.

IHM’s Military, Veterans, & Families Outreach is excited to share this slide presentation highlighting our stewardship ministry.
Realizing our country's Freedoms are guarded by the men and women who have and continue to serve in our armed forces ... with their families beside them ... we want them to experience that we are there for them, that they are not alone. Even with the restrictions imposed by Covid-19, we are still finding ways to be of assistance. If you would like to become engaged ... or would like to request support ... please reach out to us.

As a parish who has given presents through our Giving Tree at Christmas time for 30 years, we now turn to giving only gift cards to the agencies we service due to safety concerns during the coronavirus pandemic. We are currently collecting Walmart gift cards through the weekend of December 12/13.
Your donation of gift cards (in increments of not more than $25 each for easy handling) would be appreciated. Please place them in an envelope marked “Gift Card” and drop them into the wooden collection box with your offertory. The box is located against the wall near the entrance/exit hallway or you can mail/drop off to the Church Office.
After December 13, the gift cards will be distributed to the agencies we have always helped. Thank you!
