The Giving Trees - Advent Alms

Help to make Christmas special by participating in our annual Giving Tree program which benefits those in need within our local communities.
The Christmas trees, found in the alcoves of both St. Martha & St. Mary, are filled with tags that will benefit various groups in need:

The RED tags support the My Brother’s Keeper program which last year delivered gifts to 13,000 children and adults. Please note that each tag represents items needed for a child of a specific age and gender. You may purchase just one, or as many items from the sugges-tions on the tag. You are not buying for a specific child. These unwrapped gifts should be returned to the church by December 7th so they can be transported and assembled at the My Brother’s Keeper warehouse for Christmas delivery.

The GREEN tags support those in need within the Plainville & Wrentham communities through the ministry of our St. Vincent de Paul councils. These gift card requests for Stop & Shop or Target should be re-turned by December 21st to the collection basket or the St. Vincent de Paul drop box of the church you attend.

The WHITE tags are found only on the St. Mary tree and support the residents with disabilities at the Wrentham Develop Center. These items should be returned, unwrapped, to the St. Mary tree area by December 21st.


Thank you for sharing in the spirit of Christmas!
