Dear Partners in Ministry,
Well, Game 1 wasn't exactly what we were hoping for (et tu, Rizzo?!) but that's why ya play best of five.
THANK YOU FOR A BEAUTIFUL CONFIRMATION MASS
Thanks to everyone—singers, ringers, and other makers of joyful noise— who contributed to a wonderful celebration of Confirmation this Sunday! I know we can't always combine our forces like that, but when we do it's glorious.
Speaking of which:
WELCOME, BISHOP WOOST!
This weekend, we welcome our newest Auxilliary Bishop, Michael Woost, to celebrate our patronal feast day with us at the 11:00 am Mass. This is another Parish Choir event if you can possibly make it, and bells will be ringing once again too!
- Reminders about what will be different for this Mass:
- At the end of the Gospel reading, we'll sing one additional refrain of the Alleluia.
- We'll sing "O God, Hear Us" during the Prayer of the Faithful.
