We ask that you gather cards - either holiday or generic - and write a short message inside, and drop off the cards by Sunday Dec 6.  The message could be something like:   "Resurrection Parish is thinking and praying for you, and we want you to know you are loved."     Cards may be dropped off between 10 a.m. and noon on Saturday December 5th. Please follow the directions for Giving Tree Drive by drop off.
