If you bring small children to the Communion rail during the distribution of Holy Communion, please make sure the priest (especially visiting priests) are aware of which children may not receive Holy Communion.

We are now completely caught up on all Mass stipends and are able to accept more stipends (If you have not seen your Mass request listed in the bulletin, keep in mind that some of the intentions are offered in private Masses.) For the time being, there will be no limit on the number of stipends you may submit.

Father Benedict has Mass in Utah.

Please turn in your registration today for the Sunday catechism classes. There will be four groups: 1) Kindergarten- aged children, 2) children preparing for First Holy Communion, 3) children preparing for Confirmation, 4) older children who have been confirmed.

Our annual Parent/Teacher meeting in preparation for the new school year will take place this Thursday, August 24. We will begin with the recitation of the Rosary at 7:00 pm in the church, followed by the meeting in the parish hall. At least one parent from each family must be present.

On Sundays, please leave the last three pews on each side of the church for families with small children. We encourage those who do not have small children to move up toward the middle or front of the church, rather than crowding the back of the church.
