This year Our Lady of Mercy celebrates its 50th anniversary. The Giving Tree project is an important part of this history and takes place during Advent – a time for waiting with joy and for giving.

Over the years the project has evolved into a Christmas campaign to help the less fortunate of the parish. The Confirmation class now sponsors and organises the project and they ask us to participate by donating food items for OLM Caritas and Good Neighbour fund. Bring a food item, and leave it under the tree. Make sure to give your name to the class and they will make a decoration with your name on it and hang it on the tree.
All donations are welcome but especially the following:
Long grain rice
Canned goods 
Milk
Tomato sauce 
Pasta
Beans
Oil
Cola cap
Breakfast cereal 
Flour 
And as a special Christmas treat perishables such as chicken, yoghurt and Christmas treats like chocolate and turron.
