THANK YOU TO OUR MONEY COUNTERS!

Each week, our parishioners give generously of their treasure to

care for our church and our community. To ensure these

contributions are handled properly, a handful of number-savvy

parishioners also give of their time and talent. Each week, our

money counters organize the collection, crunch the numbers, and

take the deposits to the bank. It’s a job of much responsibility,

but with their positive attitudes and generous hearts, these folks

make it seem easy.

Thank you Mike Gavin, Albert Buss, Mike Keegan, Greg Arpin,

Terry Peterson, Anita Kernie, Bernie Korth, and John Leaming

for your faithful service in this ministry.

Three of our counters take on the collection from Memorial Day

weekend.

ADORATION THIS FRIDAY, JUNE 7

Join us immediately following the 8:00 a.m. Mass for a peaceful

time of prayer with our Lord.

From the Music Survey: Instrumentalists

The comments in the Music Survey regarding

our instrumentalists were overwhelmingly positive.

I made sure all our instrumental players know how very

much they are appreciated by this parish. We will continue to

utilize our own parish instrumentalists as often as they are

available. In addition, one of the trumpet players in our

professional quartet will be joining us for several

festival weekends during the Church year.

Many thanks to the parishioners who answered the

music survey. In the coming weeks, more information about

other items from the music survey will be shared in this space.

Do you want to deepen your knowledge of the Faith?

Do you know someone who is interested in Catholicism

and would like to learn more?

JOIN THE RCIA THIS YEAR!

Technically, it stands for Rite of Christian Initiation for

Adults, but if it helps, you may think of RCIA as the

ReligiousCIA: We investigate the mysteries of

Christianity using the evidence of Scripture, reason,

faith, and tradition. While this is the common avenue

for adults to enter the Church, our low-pressure RCIA

group is also a great place for adult Catholics to deepen

their knowledge and experience of the faith.

Our meetings won’t start until September, but feel free

to contact Ivana now to express your interest or ask

questions about the program: (509) 747-7972.
