The 2017 Catholic Charities Appeal Feeding the hungry, clothing the naked, visiting the sick...all of the corporal and spiritual works of mercy are perfect ways to express our love for God. Yet, it is not always possible for each of us to be present when someone is in dire need. However, we can contribute to the Catholic Charities Appeal so that someone can be present to carry out the charitable works in our name. Please be generous to the Appeal and to those I need. A “pledge” of support will have a great impact on those less fortunate. Thank you for your generosity.

We Need Altar Servers!

Please call the rectory or email Mrs. Patota if your son or 

daughter is interested in training to be an altar server.  A 

training date will be set for some  me during the summer.
