Announcements

The parish field is much recovered. I am very grateful to Eric Reslock who worked very hard with Mike Solton to bring the grass back from the brink. There is a lot of new growth that is still quite vulnerable, however, so I would like people to continue to stay off the grass until the Pig Roast. The cones and tables will remain in place until then as a reminder.

The Rosary for Priests will be prayed after the 8:30 am Mass on Sat, July 29.

Pig Roast. Pig Roast – Schedule. Aug 5th. 3 pm – Mass; 5 pm – Dinner; 7 pm – Square Dancing; 9 pm – Final Clean-up.
