Lenten Almsgiving: Please bring new boys and girls tennis shoes (sizes 1-5) and put them in the baskets at our church entrances. The shoes will be donated in collaboration with Samaritan’s Feet Project. All Scholars will have their feet washed and given a new pair of shoes. Shoes will be collected through April 7. ALSO, there will be a basket in the main aisle to collect for the ongoing needs of our own parishioners in crisis or need. Our Family Emergency Fund can be a source of balm at a time of despair. This is one way we can be community for each other.

Our English-Speaking Faith Formation Program has been graced with many talented, faithful, and gifted speakers so far this year: Fr. Paul Jarvis, Cece Ryan, Fr. Terrance Hayes, Chuck Hartfiel, and Patty Stromen. These speakers gave us new insights, explained unknowns and made us laugh, all while we learn about our God. We look forward to learning much more about our faith and meeting new friends who will share them with us. A heartfelt thank you from us all!

Stations of the Cross will be prayed every Friday at 6:30 during Lent in the church.

New HOSPITALITY MINISTRY opportunity: Ministers are needed to assist some of our folks by opening doors, being a friendly arm to guide across the street to coffee and donuts, hold an umbrella etc. If you are able to arrive to mass early and stay for a bit after, contact Christina in the parish office.
