THIRD SUNDAY OF ADVENT – Dec. 15, 2019
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to bring glad tidings to the poor.
– Isaiah 61:1
CHRISTMAS FAIR Please visit Deacon Hall immediately following all Harvard masses this weekend to support our children in religious education who were busy making beautiful hand painted ornaments, decorative containers holding food mixes and decorative gift plants. We're also bringing back an old tradition with a gingerbread house silent auction. The seventh graders made wonderful gingerbread houses and they will be on display awaiting a home for this holiday season.
There will also be baked goods.
All proceeds will go to Catholic Relief Services and Catholic Charities.
The Town of Harvard’s Ecumenical Christmas Pageant is this Sun., Dec. 15 at the Harvard Unitarian Church. There are 2 performances: 3:30 & 4:30PM. Children from all three churches participate in the annual tradition which is open to the public.
We will have the Anointing of the Sick at the 5 PM Mass Sun., Dec. 15.
On Wed., Dec. 18 at 7PM in Harvard there will be an Advent Prayer Service.
We will be decorating our churches on Sun., Dec. 22 following the 8:45 Mass in Harvard and the 10:45 Mass in Bolton. Please plan to stay after Mass if you’d like to help decorate.
