Our Lady of Mercy provides Christmas gifts for the children in both Assumption parish in SE Washington and the Spanish Catholic Center. The decorated ornaments hung on the Christmas tree in the front entry of the Church contain the age and gender of the child receiving a gift. After the new, unwrapped toys and gift cards are dropped off, the gifts are stored until it is time for delivery to their new boys and girls. Help is needed to punch out the ornaments so that the OLOM school children can decorate them. Strong arms are also welcome to help store the gifts after the Masses. This is a great way to get into the giving spirit!

During the holiday season many families cannot afford to buy enough food for a Thanksgiving meal. Our Lady of Mercy has traditionally provided Thanksgiving dinner baskets to needy families in Assumption parish in Southeast Washington, the Multi-Cultural Center, and Scotland Community in Potomac. Signups for families occur a few weeks prior to Thanksgiving. On the Saturday before Thanksgiving, parishioners bring their baskets to OLOM between 8 and 9 AM. The baskets are then delivered to their respective destinations. This is a fun family project!
