Parish News


Campaign Life Coalition:  made available plastic containers at the Church entrance this past May and it was suggested we take one home to collect loose change, pennies etc.  Pennies For Life is one of the few money makers Campaign Life depends on to cover their financial needs in their efforts to protect all human life from conception to natural death.  These containers may returned with our collection the last weekend of August which is the 28/29.  Please place the containers on the back table and Bernie will pick them up.  Your generosity is appreciated!

Bulletin: June 27, 2010 will be the last bulletin until the Fall.  If you would like a Mass Intention please call the Parish Office.  The Mass Intentions for each week will be posted on the bulletin board.

Local Food Bank is in need of non perishable foods, egg cartons, plastic bags and plastic containers. Please leave at the back of the church.  Thank you!
