ANNUAL REACH OUT SESSIONS
Reach Out with a Box of Joy! During our Family Faith Formation Reach Out Activity in December, each elementary student (Pre K-8th grade) will fill a “Box of Joy” to send to a child in a developing country. This is a beautiful opportunity for our young ones to live out their faith through giving. We invite you to support this act of charity by donating small gift items for the boxes. Questions? Contact Kellie at windwaterfaithformation@gmail.com. Thank you for being a part of this special mission!
Parish members are welcome to attend and participate in our Reach Out activity sessions held during class. No sign-up necessary.
