2026 Angel Tree Project

This Advent, we invite our parish family to come together in the spirit of Christ’s love by supporting three organizations serving veterans, children and pregnant women: Fisher House, Completely Kids and Vita Nova Maternity.

There are three ways to participate:

  1. Adopt a Child’s Christmas Wish: Sign up the weekend of November 7–8 to purchase gifts for children served by Completely Kids. If you missed the sign up and still would like to adopt a child this Christmas, contact Teresa at 402-960-8618.

  2. Choose an Ornament: Select an ornament from the giving tree and purchase a requested item for Fisher House, Completely Kids or Vita Nova Maternity.

  3. Give a Gift: Donate Target, Walmart or Casey’s gift cards, or make a monetary donation by cash, check or online using the button below.

Through these simple acts of generosity, we can put our faith into action and live out the Corporal Works of Mercy by feeding the hungry, giving drink to the thirsty, clothing the naked and sheltering the homeless.
