Christmas Flower Memorial
Again this year we are asking for your assistance as we decorate Saint Joachim’s for Christmas. We encourage you to make a donation towards our Christmas flowers in memory of a loved one. Simply write the name(s) of those you would like to remember on the outside of an envelope and drop it in the collection. Deadline for submission of names is Sunday, December 13th. Please also indicate that the envelope is for “Flowers”, and include your envelope number. The names of all those being honored will be included in our Christmas bulletin. We thank you in advance for your contributions to enable us to get the best possible arrangements for the church during Christmas.
Sunday Missals
For your convenience, 2016 Sunday Missals will be available in the foyer before and after weekend Masses at a cost of $5.
