THEME
OF OUR LITURGY
-
The widows gave without
selfishness, trusting God. Jesus
offered His life for
us.

First Reading:
1
Kings 17:10-16
The widow of Zarephath had only a handful
of flour and a little oil, but made a
little cake for Elijah.
Second Reading:
Hebrews
9:24-28
Christ will appear a second time to bring
salvation to those who eagerly await
him.
Gospel:
Mark
12:38-44[41-44]
Beware of those who like to go around in
long robes and accept greetings in the
marketplaces and places of honor at
banquets.
AS
A PARISH COMMUNITY

especially: Maureen Dan, Jack Devine,

THE
SOCIETY OF ST. VINCENT DE PAUL
CHRISTMAS GIVING TREE
2006
In the
traditional spirit of Mater Dolorosa, our
annual giving Christmas tree will be up in
the vestibule of our church beginning the
weekend of November 25th through December
15th. For your convenience, we would like
you to purchase Target gift cards rather
than individually wrapped gifts for the
needy families of our parish community.
There will be “ornament” tags on
the giving tree that indicate purchasing a
$10 gift card—please pick an “
ornament” tag and purchase as many
gift cards as you’d like. Please
label the gift card envelopes
“SVDP” and either mail or bring
them to the Rectory, or drop the gift
cards into the Sunday collection basket.
As always, we thank you for all of your
generosity and support.
We wish you
and your families
a very blessed Christmas season.

St. Vincent de Paul- Mater Dolorosa
Conference
