St. Joseph Third Annual Re-Gifting Tree


St. Joseph Church Third Annual Re-Gifting Tree

Borrowing the phrase from the popular tv show "Seinfeld", St. Joseph
Church is encouraging all to become "re-gfters" again this year. The day
after Christmas is usually a big shopping day in the United States as many
seek out bargains and look to return or exchange items that did not fit,
were not the right color, or were just not in line with personal tastes.
Few of us “need” all of the gifts we will receive at Christmas. And so,
for those items we plan to return, St. Joseph parish is asking you to
donate them to be given to someone who really needs that gift. Rather
than rushing back to the store or mall, or opening a gift and then letting
it gather dust on a shelf, we invite the community to re-gift our
underappreciated gifts to our less fortunate brothers and sisters. Gifts
may be left under the re-gifting tree from Dec 25 to January 9th. Any
questions please call the office at 973-761-5933. St. Joseph Church is
located at 767 Prospect St. Maplewood, NJ 07040.
