Luke 4:18’s Faith in Action – Santa Gifts for Seniors!

The Luke 4:18 Committee is very happy to announce that we are supporting the St. Justin Martyr Parish in their Caring and Sharing Program’s  Christmas outreach.  We will be collecting various items, such as chocolates, cookies, socks, hats, and scarves, which will be placed into gift bags and then given to seniors in the community.

The gift bags will be given to The Society of Sharing, which is an agency under the Archdiocese of Toronto.  Their work throughout the year is to support seniors and disabled adults who live alone or in group homes and have very little support. The volunteers accompany clients to medical appointments, take them to grocery shop, and organize group outings, as most live without any family support. At Christmas, the Society of Sharing organizes a Christmas gathering, or the volunteers visit these clients and bring them gift bags filled with goodies and small useful items. For many of them, it may be the only Christmas gift that they receive.

We are kindly asking that each family donates to this very important cause. 

Please send in the items by November 28th!
