​Serving Our Local Community This Christmas


​This Advent, our parish is taking up the call to serve our local community by partnering with the Cambridge Salvation Army’s, Toy Mountain. 

With your support, you can bring Christ’s love to local families in need this Christmas. 

Please review the list below and bring an unwrapped gift to the front of the church before Mass on December 5 or 6.

​We are focusing on gifts for pre-teens and teens as Toy Mountain often receives fewer donations for this group. We recommend a gift value around $30.

Thank you for your generosity!

​Questions? Please contact Andrea Szrejber, Director of Evangelization and Outreach.
