St. Mary’s traditionally has a Jesse Tree during Advent where requests for gifts are posted and parishioners can select one or more requests, purchase the gifts and leave them in gift bags under the tree which is located at the back of the church. Social Concerns is coordinating the Jesse Tree project again this year. Starting on the 1st Sunday of Advent (November 29th) the tree and the requests will be available. We are asking parishioner to generously consider selecting one or more of the requests to fulfill and leave under the tree by December 15th.
This year our main focus will be on providing gifts for the residents of the Heartland Neighborhood at Valley Senior Living on South 42nd Street. The residents of long-term care facilities have had a stressful year along with the rest of us so we want to provide them with some gifts to let them know that we care for them even if they are unable to receive much contact from friends and loved ones.
We are aware that attendance at mass is greatly reduced as a result of appropriate compliance with Covid precautions. However, we encourage parishioners who may not be able to attend mass in person to come to the church during the day when it is open to select one or more of the gift requests to fill. Or you can contact us and we would be happy to send or bring a gift request to you to fulfill. The gifts could be brought to the church & left under the tree anytime during the day when the church is open and not many people are around.
For questions or assistance you can contact Virginia Esslinger or Linda Palmiscno by leaving a message at the church office 775-9318.

Spiritual Communion Prayer with Our Lord anywhere:
My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the most Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You Sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there, and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.
