HAITI CHRISTMAS CARDS
Cards will be available at each weekend Mass between now and Christmas. Your donation for the cards will support OLQP's Haiti Ministry and the needs of our sister parish in Medor, Haiti.

GIVING TREE
We invite you to support the parish in providing lunch for 35 SEEC day labors. Each week a group of volunteers shop, prepare and package lunches for Shirlington Day Laborers  through the Brown Bag Lunch Program. The Giving Tree supports this effort: take a  brown bag angel ornament from the basket under the giving tree in the sanctuary, place your donation inside the ornament and hang it on the tree. The tree will be in the sanctuary through the Christmas season.
