SPECIAL PREVIEW NOW!

VIEW ITEMS BELOW & PURCHASE RAFFLE TICKETS IN COTTER HALL AFTER MASS, NOV. 28/29

We're continuing our beloved tradition, but in a COVID-safe way this year.  We’ll have items to be auctioned off, baskets and crafts for sale, and some fun raffles!

So that all parishioners can participate, we are setting up our virtual call center for you!  Bids on the auction items and gift purchases will take place over the phone on December 4, 5 and 6. You can watch the winners of all our prizes announced on our website that Sunday evening.

Our Jolly Old Pal, SANTA, Is Sharing His Excitement For Our Christmas Fair With You All!  He Even Highlights 2 Of Our Highest Value Items!

Santa Even Took Time To Say Hello To Some Of Our Young Parishioners!

Adults - feel free to check this video first to see if your little one's name was said before sharing. Kids - if Santa didn't say your name, don't worry! That's why he checks his list twice! We know you're on the Nice List! Santa had to run for now, but he'll be thinking about you as he prays in thanks for Baby Jesus and gets his reindeer ready for his amazing journey. God bless you and Merry Christmas!
