Sunday offering envelopes for 2022 have been prepared and are ready to be picked up. They will be placed at the back of the church – envelope numbers have remained the same for the new year and so they are organized in numerical order. IF YOUR MAILING ADDRESS has changed, please be sure to fill in this information on the first envelope to alert the office to the change. Spare envelope sets are also available for anyone wishing to begin using envelopes; please fill in your name, address and phone number on the first few envelopes. Thank you.
The new Sunday missals have arrived and are available at the back of the church. A donation of $5 is suggested. (It can be placed in the lock box at OLGC.)
I would like to form a cemetery board. I asked from the pulpit but no one has offered definitively. The role of this board is to help with the cemeteries. I would like one board for St. Mary, St. Narcissus, St. Lawrence, St. Anne and Our Lady of the Snows cemeteries and one for St. Anthony. We could combine all the cemeteries under one board for the work of updating the by-laws and fees. Please call the office if you are interested. If we have no one to assist in this effort, then no one can complain about the decisions that will be made with or without a board’s input.
