MASS INTENTIONS FOR THE WEEK
From the Pastor’s Desk
Dear Parishioners: Once again, I am proud to share with you some good news about a few of our youngest parishioners. Both attend our Catholic School and are regular altar servers at Sunday Mass. First, I would like to congratulate Isaac Santiago. Isaac was honored with a scholarship to attend Roman Catholic High School next September. The funding was awarded through the generosity of the Josephine C. Connelly Foundation. Before their passing, Josephine and her husband set up the foundation to continue beyond their years. The foundation has been a great support to Catholic education in the archdiocese for years. Congratulations to Isaac and his family. We are all so very proud of your accomplishments!
Also pictured below is Hannah Alfonso, one of our 5th graders and regular Sunday altar servers who performed last Saturday at an annual neighborhood festival in Fitler Square Park. Fr. Richard

Queridos Feligreses: Una vez más, me enorgullece compartir con ustedes algunas buenas noticias acerca de nuestros feligreses más jóvenes. Ambos asisten a nuestra Escuela Católica y son servidores del altar regularmente en las misas del domingo. Primero, quiero felicitar a Isaac Santiago. Isaac fue honrado con una beca para asistir a la Escuela Superior Católica Roman el próximo Septiembre. Los fondos fueron otorgados por la generosidad de la Fundación Josephine C. Connelly. Antes de su muerte, Josephine y su esposo organizaron la fundación de manera que continuara después de sus años. La fundación ha sido una gran ayuda para la educación Católica en la arquidiócesis por años. Felicidades a Isaac y su familia. ¡Todos estamos muy orgullosos de tus logros!
También en el retrato de abajo esta Hannah Alfonso, una de nuestras estudiantes de 6to grado y servidora regular del altar los domingos quién el pasado Sábado actuó en un festival del vecindario en Filter Square Park.
