FLASH BACK!
4th Annual Green Fest, May 12, 2012
Clear, seasonable weather favored our Fourth Annual Green Fest concession at Shafer Park in Boonsboro on May 12, 2012. Proceeds of the one day event exceeded all other Green Fests. We had plenty of help, including some newcomers.

Gift Card Program
Ongoing Martin’s/Giant Gift Card Program: Do you buy groceries?  Are you interested in a way for the Church to earn $5 for every $95 parishioners spend at Martin's or Giant grocery stores?  Gift cards are sold in $25/50/100 denominations and used just as you would cash in purchasing your groceries. For every $100 dollars in Gift Cards purchased, St. Catherine’s receives $5. Savings add up just as fast as shoppers use them to buy groceries.  Participation is not limited to members of St. Catherine’s.  Grocery gift cards can be purchased by anyone at face value. This is a great gift to college students, for Thanksgiving baskets and Stocking Stuffers!  Please see Stacy Evanisko or David Heatwole for more information and to purchase your Martin’s/Giant Gift Cards today.

Christmas Cards for sale

For Christmas each year our parish creates a Christmas card that all of our families sign and that one of our children creates the art for.  This card is then sent to our own members and to friends of our parish.  For 2008 Pasha Heatwole created an icon of Mary holding baby Jesus.  The image was so nice that his father decided to invest in creating packs of Christmas cards that could be purchased from the Parish as a fundraiser.  Sets of 10 high quality cards and envelopes can be purchased for $12 or larger quantities can be bought at discounted rates.  Contact our church for more information.
