Giving tree participants raise over $10,000 in gifts for needy local families

The St. Catherine of Siena Rosary Society sent this note of thanks to the parishioners who participated in the Giving Tree this Holiday Season:

Dear Parish Family:

Thank you for your abundant donations to the 2016 Giving Tree! As a parish, we have collected over $10,500 in material gifts, gift cards, and checks. Through your generosity, our parish was able to provide many items, including warm coats, boots, hats, gloves, diapers, toys, baby toiletries, baby crib items, and gift cards for the single mom families served by the Friendship Center for New Beginnings in Flemington and Life Choices in Phillipsburg. Your generous donations of checks and gift cards will benefit families in our parish, the Veteran's Ministry, Diocese of Metuchen Ministry for the Disabled, and the Family Promises ministry.

May God bless you for your kindness.

The St. Catherine of Siena Rosary Society
