Vacation Bible School Information
Vacation Bible School is scheduled for Monday, July 11th through July 15th. Registration will begin in the next couple
of weeks. Erin Burke will again be leading our VBS team. We are seeking new volunteer and inviting back everyone
who did such a great job last year. Even if you can only help one or two days please volunteer to help. The success of
this parish program depends on you. If you would like to volunteer, please call Erin at 941-0703.
From the Desk of Father Pauselli
Today is the feast of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ. It gives us an opportunity to reflect on our celebration of the Eucharist in a way that we may not have time for on Holy Thursday. This action is central to
who we are as Catholics. It defines us and builds up the Church as the Body of Christ in the world so that we
can continue Jesus’ mission on earth.
Friday of this week is the first Friday of June and the Solemnity of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. Join us for
Mass at 12:10 p.m. and lunch afterward in the Parish Center.
As we continue to plan for our parish picnic on June 17 and 18 plan on purchasing a raffle ticket as soon as
possible. An early bird prize of $1,000 will be awarded on Sunday, June 12. The success of the raffle is crucial
to the overall success of our picnic. Thank you in advance for your participation.
Have a great week!
The Parish Office will be closed on Monday, May 30 in observance of
Memorial Day.
