Housewarming at SKD

Many of you have expressed a desire to purchase a household item that is needed to get the rectory ready for its inhabitants. In an effort to make it easy for anyone who wants to purchase a housewarming gift, a gift registry has been created to include multiple retailers at myregistry.com. Items have been carefully selected to accommodate the residents of this rectory in a variety of price ranges, keeping household budgets in mind, so anyone wanting to purchase a gift can do so. To search the registry, enter the name Katharine Drexel and a listing of items and locations will come up. If you prefer to go directly to a store, Crate and Barrel, Target, Bed Bath and Beyond, Amazon, Menards, Costco and Pottery Barn are the retailers listed on myregistry.com. All searches require the name Katharine Drexel. Gifts can be dropped at the parish office or shipped directly. Thank you all so much for your generosity, we can’t wait to celebrate this great accomplishment together!
