Father’s Day
Last Year’s tribute page in our bulletin was a popular way for Parishioners to remember and honor their Fathers. Simply print his name on the front of an envelope and “In Memory of” if he is deceased or “In Honor of” if he is still living. Please also write “Father’s Day” somewhere on the front of the envelope. You may also choose to place a donation for the Debt Fund in the same envelope but this is not required. Please place it in the collection no later than Sunday, June 10th.
Happy Anniversary
Today, Tuesday, May 22nd is the 25th Anniversary of Fr. Stephen’s Ordination to the Priesthood. All parishioners are invited to join us in the foyer after Mass next weekend, May 26th & 27th, for cake and ice cream as we celebrate the occasion.
