Whoever is generous to the poor lends to the Lord, and he will repay him for his deed.
PROVERBS 19:17
For many years IHM has supported the St. Francis Center in Redwood City during the Advent Season through our
Annual Advent Giving Tree. In 2020, the needs of these families are more dire than ever. This year has also been difficult for many in our community. We ask that despite our own challenges, we support the St. Francis Center in their mission of supporting at risk families in living with dignity.
Due to Covid-19 health and safety concerns, IHM is implementing a
virtual, contactless Giving Tree to assist the St. Francis Center in helping these families. IHM will collect the donations and send a check in the total amount to St. Francis Center. There are two ways to participate:
1) donate online using link below (preferred) or
2) drop off a check in the Rectory mail slot located outside the
Rectory front door.
Please make checks payable to IHM Church Giving Tree
The Giving Tree donations will be collected through December 8th.
