Greetings! I have many updates to share. 

AIR CONDITIONER/ HEAT SYSTEM.  Our appreciation to the Anita Ryan Trust Fund for its generous gift to the parish donated specifically for air conditioning. There will be no cost to parishioners or need of funds from Savings Account. The expected installation is mid-September. 

FAITH FORMATION REGISTRATION 

Our Faith Formation Program is making some adjustments to their program. Please see registration forms in the Narthex for Sacraments, Faith Formation and our new Youth Group. 

VACATION  & RETREAT 

Next week, I will be away in Maine for some late vacation time. There will not be daily Mass August 25-29. Then, I will take my annual Trappist Monastery retreat.  All Daily Masses Sept 1-5, will be at 8:30 AM by Fr. Ed Broom. 

CAPITAL REPAIRS: 

We are moving forward with the Parking Lot Pavement project. Expected costs are about $250,000+! Already we have some donors which gives me hope we might squeeze this project in as early as fall. We must install French drains to better collect the water and stop erosion along the edge of the parking lot. God is blessing us abundantly! 

TOM COVERDALE 

Our parish maintenance man has bought “Deadheads” T-shirts for those assisting him with weeding our gardens and prep for next year.

There will be a special collection the weekend of Labor Day, August 30-31, for Loaves and Fishes. Please help this worthy cause.
