Defender of the Bond at the Metropolitan Tribunal, will celebrate his 25th anniversary of
ordination at St. Meinrad Archabbey. Congratulations to Fr. Patrick!

our country. Mass will be at 9:00 a.m. There will be no 5:30 p.m. Communion Service. Also,
the parish office and the school will be closed on Monday.
Tuesday is Little Flower School’s 8th grade graduation. The graduation Mass will begin at 6 p.m. Scholarships and awards will be

SUMMERFEST 2016 is this coming weekend, Friday-Sunday, June 3-5. Please check out all the bulletin announcements concerning
SUMMERFEST 2016, which is our largest fund raiser each year. Its success depends upon your support. Please remember the proceeds
this year will be applied to resurfacing one-half of the parking lot and replacing two flat roofs and two HVAC units on the church roof.
First, please sell as many raffle tickets as possible. Memorial Day gatherings are a good time to sell raffle tickets.
Second, please attend the festival with your family, and participate in the activities of the festival.
Third, please invite and encourage everyone you know to attend and participate in the festival. This includes your children, grandchildren,
parents, grandparents, uncles, aunts, nephews, nieces, cousins, neighbors, friends, co-workers. Again, Memorial Day gatherings are a
good time to encourage attendance and participation in SUMMERFEST 2016.
Fourth, please pray for good weather for SUMMERFEST 2016.
Finally, thank you for all your support for SUMMERFEST 2016. This includes Tom Costello, the Festival Committee, all volunteers, all
who sell or purchase raffle tickets, and all who attend the festival or encourage others to attend.
Have a wonderful week!
