We once again have a Giving Tree outside of the Religious Education Office. We are asking the students of our parish to bring in new pairs of socks, mittens, hats and gloves to "decorate our tree". Homeless people are in desperate need of warm items during these cold winter months. Your donation will go a long way in helping women, men and children who struggle to stay warm.  Thank you for your generosity!
 

The students of our religious education program will be learning some Christmas Carols during class time in Advent. On the last day of classes before Christmas Break, we will be gathering together in the church to sing these Christmas Carol. All are invited to the church on Monday, December 17th and Tuesday, December 18th at 4:45pm to sing with us. 
 

We are very excited to have started a new program for children ages 3-5. Catechesis of the Good Shepherd is an wonderful program for the youngest of our parishoners.  The program takes place on Mondays 10-11AM. Please contact Sarah Kelly at sarah.kelly@saintgeorgesparish.org for more information.

On the second Sunday of each month, a group of children gather at the Mary Chapel after the 9:00am mass to recite the rosary. The students are learning all of the prayers of the rosary in their religious education classes. Please join us to prayer this very special prayer togther. 

Information for religious education will be able to be found here on the website, but also in the parish bulletin and through emails. Please check in with the bulletin for updated information weekly. Also, if you have not been receiving emails, please contact Sarah Kellysarah.kelly@saintgeorgesparish.org or Kevin Browne kevin.browne@saintgeorgesparish.org and we will be sure to add your email to our distribution lists.
