This year’s Vacation Bible School at Saint Michael will reach out to children in our community living with cancer. Organized in memory of 7 year old parishioner Michael Malone, the 300 VBS kids will bring a toy for the children undergoing treatment at Children’s Health Hospital in Dallas. You can give, too! Beginning today through Thursday, a toy-donation box will be outside the Saint Michael Chapel to accept gifts from parishioners, as well as the Vacation Bible School kids. On Friday afternoon the toys will be delivered to Children’s Health Dallas for its prize closet. After treatment the patients are rewarded with a trip to the prize closet.
