December 9th at the 10:30 service St. Nicholas will again visit and tell us why he is a saint. In honor of St. Nicholas, parishioners are invited to make a donation to the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem, which maintains hope—and schools–for Arab Christian children living in a divided country. Please be generous and write your checks to All Saints’ Episcopal Church with “St. Nicholas” in the memo. Or, you can go to www.afedj.org and donate online. Another way to help those in need is to bring an unwrapped toy to donate to El Buen Samaritano so families can have gifts for their children. You may bring the gifts Dec. 9th or 16th and put them in the cart at the back of the church. If you would like more information call Madre Cynthia at 512.476.3589, ext 110
