Advent is a time of quiet anticipation and hope for Christ’s rebirth. Often we focus elsewhere getting caught up in frantic preparations for the secular “holiday season” searching endlessly for gifts.
Instead of spending too much time and money buying material items for loved ones, you can give gifts of sharing benefiting others. The Alternative Gift Giving Catalog designates organizations in need identified by the Social Services office at Blessed Sacrament. This catalog provides the opportunity to sponsor services while reducing the commercialism of the Advent.
By placing an order from this catalog, you can elect to receive a personalized card specifying the charitable service which you are sponsoring. Simply present the cards as your gift. Please indicate if your gift is simply a donation requiring no card. Complete the order form attached above. Return the completed form for your gift selections and check made payable to Blessed Sacrament Church. Please deliver it no later than December 16th. The address is:
Shrine of the Most Blessed Sacrament
Michele Bowe
3705 Leland Street
Chevy Chase, MD 20815
Completed cards will be mailed or available for pick up at the above address. If you have any questions, please contact Michele Bowe at 240.461.0034 or [email protected].
