"Ora et labore” ~ St. Benedict
This is the partnership of “prayer and work” according to St. Benedict’s monastic rule. It provides a wonderful balance in life in serving God and neighbor. Please use the summer months to balance prayer, work and relaxation with family.
While it is summer, it remains a busy time for the parish staff and volunteers. Calendars, events, and fall planning are keeping us busy.
My thanks again to all who have contributed so far to the NH Catholic Campaign. Some checks have been returned since they were made out to the parish instead of the Campaign. Please use the proper envelopes which has our parish code on it, and address the contribution to NH Catholic Campaign. So far about 125 households out of 600 have contributed something.
Mark Your Calendars!
