It’s not quite a million, but who couldn’t use an extra $500 as summer rolls around- the grand prize in our Heart of the Northside Picnic Raffle? Your raffle tickets are available for you to pick up after Mass beginning April 28. Be sure to pick up your tickets in the back of the church, sell them, and return your sold raffle tickets to the church office or in the collection baskets. Who knows… you, a relative, or a friend might be a winner. Extra tickets will be available at the parish office.

With the transition to one campus, we are completing our registration forms so that we have the most up to date data system for the parish. If you didn’t fill out a registration form in November, you will be receiving a letter and registration form in the mail. Please fill out the registration and mail it back to St. Bridget’s or put it in the collection basket at Mass. This will help ensure we have current information on file for our parishioners. Thank you!
