Our annual Christmas Bazaar was held on November 13 & 14 and it was great fun as well as a very successful fund raiser. We raised over $18,000 to be used for furnishings for our new Faith Formation Center.
There were so many who volunteered their time and talents to make the bazaar a great success that I won't mention any names for fear of forgetting someone. I am extremely grateful to everyone who helped in so many different ways. Not only was the day a financial success but it was also a wonderful day of building community.
I am also thankful to the many parishioners who attended the bazaar and supported it by buying raffle tickets.
On another Christmas related issue I want to remind you to stop by the Christmas Tag table in the Gathering Space to select a gift tag for a needy family. Wrapped gifts should be returned to the church on December 12 and 13. These gifts help to make a joyful Christmas for a number of families in our sister parish St. Benedict.

This is a blog by the Pastor of Saint Francis of Assisi for Fulton, MD. It is our hope that through this blog we can all learn to be more like Jesus in our everyday lives. Please do post comments, ideas, thoughts, concerns, etc. and let's get a real communication circle going here. Let us make this our own little online center. And if you're not a member of this parish, that's OK. We like to hear from you as well. Jesus loves you. Everyday.
Fr. Dennis Diehl, Pastor
