Advent Campaign fruits were abundant: St. Nicholas made numerous visits distributing coins, the trees twinkled with the students' coins indicating such "good works" as "Setting the table with care," " Greet everyone with a friendly smile," and "I will pray for the sick and all kids that don't have fun on Christmas."  Additionally, gift bags (over a dozen) were brimming with winter clothing for the homeless in Calgary.  The Grade 12 girls and their friends from New Heights delivered the items on an outing to the Mustard Seed. Thank you for your support and encouragement throughout the campaign.  Please click HERE to see samples of the students' coins.
