Write a Letter to Santa

Hey, kids! If your parents are taking you through the drive-thru to visit Santa on December 12, you can write a letter to Santa, and it will be collected as you drive through. Details about the drive thru are here.

Santa Is Coming to OLQU!

Santa Claus will be visiting on Saturday, December 12, after the 5 PM Mass! The Social Committee will be hosting a drive-through Santa visit at the main entrance of the church. Enter the parking lot using the south entrance (closest to Sparkman Drive), and exit using the north entrance (closest to Grizzard). There will be an elf directing traffic. (Pay close attention to the elf—Santa will be watching you!) We ask that the children stay in their cars—we don’t want to expose Santa to any GERMS!
