Beginning the weekend of November 22nd – 23rd you can select a tag for a Senior Living facility resident and a Toy Drive tag.
Senior Facility – Make a Wish Come True!
Sacred Heart Church has a long and beautiful tradition of reaching out to residents in local senior living facilities to make their Christmas wishes come true.
- Select a tag from the Giving Tree. The tag will have the senior’s name and a list of wishes. Please choose one wish you can make come true.
- Purchase the gift, wrap the gift and affix the tag to the gift with the tree image facing up.
- Bring the wrapped gift to Mass no later than the weekend of December 6 to 7.
The Salterra Senior Living facility will hold their Christmas party on December 11th. If you would like to volunteer, please call Patricia Slaymaker at 727-374-4597 (no text). If you are unable to reach Patricia, you can call the parish office 727-541-4447.
If you select a tag from the tree PLEASE return the gift no later than the weekend of December 6 or 7 so everyone has a gift to open at the Christmas party.
Toys for Christmas
This year we are working in conjunction with the Pinellas Park Fire Department for distribution of toys to families in need. Take a tag from the Christmas Tree and purchase a toy. Unwrapped toys can be brought back to the church during the weekends of 11/29 – 11/30 AND 12/6 and 12/7.
Toys are collected for all ages, from infants up to 17 years old. The greatest need each year tends to be for teenagers. Gift cards are a great option for this age group, and they typically recommend Target, Walmart or Amazon.
If you have any questions, please contact the parish office.
