Catholic Mission – Socktober Fundraiser

Tomorrow is SOCKBALL FRIDAY.

We are raising money for Catholic Mission. We will be making SOCKBALLS to remind us of how blessed we are in our lives and of how little other kids have… not even enough money to buy a simple soccer ball. It is up to us to help them…. It is up to us to do as Jesus’ asks us and REACH OUT AND GIVE LIFE.

Matthew 25:35-40

³⁵ For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, ³⁶ I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’

Students are to wear mufti (casual clothes) and bring a gold coin donation for Catholic Mission.

Students will be making their own ‘Sockballs’ and using them to engage in a range of physical activities for SPORT.

Please send in the following if you have them at home:

• Old socks
• Bubble wrap
• Plastic bags
• Styrofoam
• Old Tshirts/light material clothing

Other ways you can join us in helping the poor:

PRAYER – join us in praying for the poor and marginalised.

DONATIONS – Please help us with monetary donations if you are able. Each class has a ‘mission basket’. Let us all help ‘fill the baskets of those whose are empty’
