“Keep Christ in Christmas” Ornament Contest
The Christmas season is here and the Knights of Columbus offer this contest. This is an opportunity for SMHC children in grades Preschool - 6th to recognize that Christmas is a special season of love and peace because of God's gift to the world -- the birth of His Son, Jesus Christ. Ornament entries are to be placed on the Christmas tree located in the Social Hall at St. Mary’s. They will be collected on Sunday, January 4, after our Mass celebrating The Epiphany of the Lord. Winners to be selected at the January 19 K of C meeting and awarded the following week.
