CCD/CCW Spring Fundraisers

CCD/CCW Spring Fundraisers

The CCD group will be receiving 6 tickets to Dollywood for its participation in last year’s Christmas shoebox challenge.  The CCD children will need to have some fundraisers to raise enough money so that all of the children can receive a free ticket.  We are planning to make it a CCD/Parish trip in July.  Dollywood group rates (groups of 15+) for churches are $49.40 for adults and $40.40 for children ages 4-11.  All parishioners are welcome to join us.

We are planning the following fundraiser in partnership with the CCW (proceeds to be equally divided):

Crock Pot Lunch Sunday April 7th after mass:  Lunch includes entrée of your choice from the Crockpot selections, beverage, and dessert.  Cost of lunch is $5 for adults and $3 for children 12 and under.  Please mark your calendars and plan to stay for lunch!!  It’s a better deal than any restaurant usually offers!

The CCW and CCD programs appreciate your support!!!!

2012 Christmas Shoebox Challenge

2012 Christmas Shoebox Challenge

The CCD youth group and CCW women’s group of Christ the King Catholic Church partnered up to participate in this year’s Good Samaritan Christmas Shoebox Challenge. The goal was 100 shoeboxes. The church exceeded the goal and was able to fill 108 shoeboxes with toys, candy, hygiene items and school supplies for needy kids throughout the world. The CCD youth group would like to thank the ladies of CCW and all of the Christ the King parishioners who contributed and helped out with this project.
