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.
