The Giving Tree
The Giving Tree with tags will be in the Merrill Hall (Parish Hall) Foyer, beginning Sunday, November 27th, the FIRST SUNDAY in ADVENT.
When purchasing a Gift Card, please be certain to attach the receipt/gift receipt to the card. This ensures that the purchase has gone through and there are no problems when shopping. Thank you!
Deadline for returning Gift Cards/Receipts is Sunday, DECEMBER 11th, which is the 3rd Sunday in Advent.
It is important that a Gift Card/Receipt is given directly to a specific person versus leaving it under the tree. Those specific people would be: Pastorr Charlie, Julie Peace, Parish Sexton Sherry Schiavone, or Bunnie Lubs.
If you are currently not attending Services due to COVID-19, and you would still like to participate in our annual Giving Tree program, merely choose a business (see below), purchase a gift card/receipt in any denomination, and then contact Bunnie Lubs for Drop-off (contact info below).
The various businesses include, but aren't limited to: Famous Footwear, Kohl’s, Marshall’s, TJMaxx, WalMart, Ulta, Stop & Shop, Big Y, BJ’s, Costco, ShopRite, and/or any Outlet Stores in Westbrook & Clinton.
The green tag is really just a reminder to purchase a gift card! So, you can participate even if you cannot stop by to take a green tag off the tree!
Thank you very much for your steadfast love, support and participation in our annual Giving Tree Program! The Giving Tree is about 50 years old and it is because of all of YOU, that it exists so successfully!
Blessings,
**Bunnie Lubs
