​Working with several local agencies, The Giving Tree Ministry coordinates the collection of Christmas presents for the needy of the Madison area . We make special gift tags and use them to decorate Christmas trees or wooden crosses placed in the church vestibule on the weekend after Thanksgiving. Gifts are donated by parish and school families, collected in the church vestibule and distributed to several charities in Madison in time for their Christmas deliveries.
​
The Giving Cross collects hygiene and medical items during Lent to bring to locale organizations. Wooden crosses, with tags, are placed in the vestibule during Lent.
​
Organizational meeting: look for details in the church bulletin during the month of September.
