The peace and love of our Lord, God and Savior Jesus Christ be with you all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
T o All Our St. Anthony Families,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We pray that in this time of hope and giving of the Advent season we can open our<\/p>\n\n\n\n
hearts to those children who are suffering with illness and injuries. We ask that with a<\/p>\n\n\n\n
happy and humble heart you consider contributing a Christmas gift to a hospitalized<\/p>\n\n\n\n
child. We also wanted to make you aware of the NEW CHOP POLICY for gift<\/p>\n\n\n\n
donations. CHOP will not be accepting any drop off gifts this time of year. In Lieu<\/p>\n\n\n\n
of this we are encouraged to send monetary donations towards purchasing gifts<\/p>\n\n\n\n
or purchase a gift via the attached link. The Weisman Children\u2019s Rehabilitation<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hospital in Marlton, NJ also encourages the financial donations to be through<\/p>\n\n\n\n
their link which you will also find attached all year round. Although, Weisman<\/p>\n\n\n\n
will still be accepting physical drop off donations. These gifts should be NEW!!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year we will also be donating to the Ronald McDonald House of Camden.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They provide housing for travelling and local families who have a loved one in<\/p>\n\n\n\n
the Camden Hospitals free of charge. We will be donating small NEW amenities and<\/p>\n\n\n\n
pantry staples<\/p>\n\n\n\n
to help the families in this difficult time. You will find the Wish List attached.(It is NOT a link – see list below)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Attached you will find the links of the Children\u2019s Hospital of Philadelphia and The Weisman Children\u2019s Rehabilitation Hospital Wish Lists. Please note the most neglected age groups are the infants and adolescents. There will be one box labeled with Weisman Children\u2019s Hospital and another labeled Ronald McDonald House by the inside entrance of the church. The last day <\/strong>for physical donation drop offs will be Sunday, Dec 22nd<\/u><\/strong>. These small acts of kindness are so desperately needed in this world and serve as a great reminder of<\/p>\n\n\n\n God\u2019s infinite love and generosity. This serves as a wonderful opportunity to share<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jesus\u2019s love with our community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSo let each one give as he purposes in his<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n heart, not grudgingly or of necessity; for God<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n loves a cheerful giver.\u201d<\/em> (2 Cor 9:7)<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Weisman Children’s Rehab Hospital Wishlist<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
