FEAST OF THE ASSUMPTION MASS will be celebrated Wednesday, August 15 at 8 a.m. at St. Bridget campus and 5:30 p.m. at St. Austin campus. We invite you to come and celebrate this Marian feast!

Our trustees (Mike Johnson and Gerri Hare), our resident priest (Fr. Paul), our parish director/pastoral care director (Joni Sandlin), our part-time pastoral care minister (Brother Bruce), and our deacon (Dcn. Rich) will be phoning our parish community’s important stakeholders – that is, all our parishioners - to tap into their wisdom during this important year of transition. Calls have begun. It is a slow process, but we will contact everyone. We are available to visit parishioners in their homes, or hospitals. Please notify the office if you are in need of pastoral care and a member of the pastoral care team will contact you to arrange a visit.

There are still dates available in 2018 for Mass intentions and remembrances of loved ones. Please call the office or mail in your request; suggested donation is $7.

From Kyle and Nicolle Peltier: Many of you have been so incredibly kind and generous in our time of need for little Kayden, Lillie, Konnor and our entire family. When Kyle and I finally had a moment to take a breath and realize how many people have been sending their love, support, and prayers, donating time to baby sit, cook for us and, give gift cards for our family, we were moved beyond words and overcome with emotion! We wanted you all to know how much we appreciate all of your prayers and support for our children’s healing and continued recovery. It has definitely made a difference in our lives and renewed our sense of hope in the power of love. Thank you so much! Our family is also praying for all of you.
