On November 12th during Christian Formation time, our Sunday School students decorated the tags for the annual Christmas Giving tree, a service project benefitting children receiving a variety of services from Oaks Integrated Care in Westhampton.
Founded 50 years, Oaks has grown into a private, nonprofit organization that impacts some 34,000 lives a year! It is dedicated to improving the quality of life for children, adults and families struggling with mental illness, addiction or developmental disabilities. There are more than 230 health and social service programs throughout 19 counties in New Jersey. Let’s continue the tradition of Saint Mathew supporting this mission.
Please consider taking a tag with a child’s name, age, and wish list from the tree in the narthex. It is also asked that if you choose a child that is requesting a clothing or footwear item, that you provide a gift receipt. Please return all gifts by Sunday, December 10th.
