We need your help to make Angel Tree as special as possible this year. This program sends gifts to children of incarcerated parents in the Phoenix area and it is one of our favorite holiday traditions. Angel Tree would not be possible without the help of our parish, so check out our website today to learn how you can get involved!⁠
