Today marked the final day of the 2019 OLS Christmas Knitathon. We had a great number of scarves this year with the final count coming in at 122 scarves, 48 hats, and 1 jumper. We had great helpers down at lunchtime today to wrap all the knitted goods with a few sweets and a card to further spread the OLS Christmas cheer. This evening the Peter McVerry Trust collected them and will distribute them to their clients, who will be very grateful for the Christmas wishes and the thoughtful gifts. Well done to all who got involved whether it was knitting yourself, or getting assistance from family members and friends. This is a fantastic showing of the great charity and generosity that represent the Christmas Spirit in Our Lady's.
