Poinsettia Sales!
St. Bernard is selling beautiful red poinsettias for the holidays. Each poinsettia is $10 and grows 13-15 inches tall with 5 blooms. They will be delivered the first week of December. They make a great gift for neighbors, family and coworkers or purchase to use as part of your holiday decorating or donate one to the church altar to commemorate a loved one. For added convenience, you can purchase poinsettias at our H&S online store www.thesbsstore.com/store. We also have volunteer opportunities if you wanted to help sell after church masses. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090c48a9ab2eaa8-poinsettia
