The CHRISTMAS GIVING TREE: Take a Tag
The Knights of Columbus have organized the
Christmas Giving Tree project to provide over 150
gifts to families in need in the Nashua area. The
Giving Tree is in the church gathering space
Please return the wrapped gift (attach the tag to
the outside of the gift) no later than THIS
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 8. It is very important
that the gift tag be attached to the outside of
the wrapped gift. The gifts are due back 1 week
early due to the agency pick up dates. Thank you
for supporting this outreach to the community.
This week we join our prayers with the
Neighborhood Rosary Group as we pray for
Vocations and our Parish Mission Projects.
CELEBRATING our 50th ANNIVERSARY
The Parish of the Resurrection will celebrate our
50th anniversary in 2020. To commemorate the
anniversary, a suncatcher has been designed and
made to replicate the round, stained glass windows
in the church. The suncatchers are available after
all the Masses. The cost is $20.

Christmas Concert, dynamic speaker, and
entertaining social gathering. Beginning at 7 p.m.,
our night kicks off with our “Make Room” Christmas

Bombers with Sammie Moore and the Here on Earth

the night's theme "Make Room". This talk will lead
into a time of Adoration, Praise and Worship.
