St, Vincent de Paul
Adopt-A-Family Program
Will you help bring the message of love and joy to the needy this Christmas by becoming a part of the Adopt-a-Family Program?
On SAT, Nov. 29 and SUN, Nov. 30 you may take an ornament from the Christmas tree in St. Mary Church. On the ornament you will find a code number, and on the backside, the size of the family. A St Vincent DePaul representative will be at the tree to give you important additional information and suggestions about the family. If adopting a family is a financial challenge, consider going together with a friend or family member, and sharing the joy and cost of adopting a Christmas family to bring an extra special Christmas to someone who more than likely wouldn’t have one this year.
On SAT, Dec. 13, bring your wrapped and labeled gifts to the St Mary school gym door between 9:00-11:00am so that we may distribute them later in the day to the families. If you do not wish to adopt a family, but wish to give a financial contribution, write “St Vincent” on an envelope and drop it in the collection basket in the next few weeks. For information, contact Jim Tester at jim.testersvdp@gmail.com or Pat Mettler at 260-341-4579.

EUCHARISTIC ADORATION
This invitation comes directly to each of us from Jesus Christ, Himself... probably the best invitation of our lives!
The response to this invitation, for personal time with Christ, is available to us on Wednesdays at SSPP at 9:20am to 6:00pm. We hope everyone will consider joining in this devotion. If you can spend an hour with the Blessed Sacrament during this time... please join us!!
Also, our neighboring Parish, St.Mary Catholic Church, has Adoration each Friday at 9:00am to 6:00pm.
This is the article from the USCCB that Fr. Tony referred to in his bulletin column on August 24th.
SGO (Scholarship Granting Organization)
SHOW THIS TO YOUR TAX PREPARER!
There is a terrific way to get a large tax break and support our parishes and school through donations to our diocesan SGO (“Scholarship Granting Organization”). The SGO of Northeast Indiana (www.sgonei.org) supports Huntington Catholic School.
Tax Credit The state tax credit makes an SGO contribution especially attractive to donors. In addition to the potential Federal tax deduction for charitable contributions, SGO donations are eligible for a 50% State of Indiana Tax Credit.
Where your Donation Goes Your donation to the SGO of Northeast Indiana designating Huntington Catholic School as the recipient is used to help families with financial need with their tuition costs. Please note that we receive your entire contribution. For example, if you contribute $1000 to our school, we receive $1000 to give as tuition assistance, even though you still get $500 back as a state tax credit.
This seems too good to be true. How it is possible? The State of Indiana has encoded this into law in order to encourage private investment in education.
How Do I Donate? – You can donate online at
https://app.sgonei.org/donations/new
Our school’s Principal, Derek Boone, is available to answer questions and can assist with the donation process. dboone@huntingtoncatholic.org
Please consider making a donation which greatly benefits our school and parishes!
