St. Nicholas is one of the most beloved saints in the Catholic Church. He is said to be the patron saint of more causes than any other saint, but is best known as the patron saint of children. He lived during the 3rd and 4th centuries, and he is especially remembered for his generosity and gift giving. On the night before St. Nicholas Day (Dec. 6), children put a shoe out, and St. Nick comes and fills the shoe with candy and gifts.
St. Patrick's Guild is having a special children's event on Saturday Dec. 5th to celebrate St. Nicholas Day. From 11-3, St. Nick will be in our store to take pictures! Refreshments will be served, and there are special giveaways for all of the kids. Be sure to bring your camera!
