It’s Christmas Basket time at St. Joseph!  Please pick up a suggested food item list and a food bag for your donated items in the church vestibule. You can also purchase Scrip by putting it in an envelope marked “Christmas Basket Donation,” and placing it in the offertory. All food donations must be returned to the church by December 6. Proceeds from special collections on Thanksgiving and November 30/December 1 will be used to purchase item shortages and grocery store certificates for perishable items like meats and fresh produce.
