Delivering For Christmas Giving

A volunteer unloads one of 12 large boxes of Christmas gifts donated by parishioners of Good Shepherd and St. Theresa Parishes in Evansville to the 2014 Catholic Charities Christmas Giving Program. Gifts began arriving at the Diocese of Evansville Catholic Center on Dec. 8. Families picked up donated gifts later in the week. Catholic Charities facilitated the adoption of 394 needy children this year; donors shopped for them, and delivered wrap gifts for distribution. Look for more photos and additional details in the Dec. 19 issue of The Message.
