Behind the Scene with the Buildings and Grounds Committee
As we all know, there is ALWAYS something to be done around the house, and that in-cludes God’s house too! So, we are starting a new section of the bulletin to keep you up to date on the many ‘behind the scene’ projects that are being done at the parish. Thank you everyone for your support via prayers, your donations to the project funds and any time you can give to help out.
Clymer – repaired the hole in louvres and replaced the screen where birds were getting into the church above the Priest’s Sacristy. This included removing 2 garbage bags of stuff plus a large speaker left there! Rectory basement was cleaned up and hand rails on the side of the rectory were secured. Ernest – Roof spouting repaired/replaced; carpet removed from basement, along with two pianos from the old school. Glen Campbell – air conditioning repaired, with more items on the list. Heilwood and Camerons Bottom – projects on the list to be done. Rossiter – panels were installed in the church basement around the furnaces; old organ and television were removed from basement. One Confirmation project was completed in Clymer – Alyssa Altemus scraped and painted the handrails at the front of the church. Thank you, Alyssa! Alex Polenik also put in a few hours with the work crew so far, which is part of his Confirmation project. Thank you, Alex! If ANYONE needs volunteer hours for Scouts, school or Confirmation, please call the office and leave your contact information. A great big thank you goes out to Tina Semon and Barb and Al Sipos for all their work in the flower beds at the Clymer church!
*** First Workday: Saturday July 18 at 9 AM in Rossiter! Please come and lend a hand to help clean out the furnace room. Lots of items to carry out and help is welcome and needed.
UPCOMING Project Work Days: the THIRD Saturday for the next few months - July 18, August 15, Septem-ber 19, etc. If you are willing to help, please contact John Hardesty at [email protected] or cell 724-388-0607. He would like to compile a list of people to contact via email and/or text for other work days too. Thank you! The Buildings and Grounds Committee has site visits scheduled over the next 2 weeks, so along with other pro-
jects on the list, more will be added, undoubtedly! Stay tuned...

FIFTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME - JULY 12, 2020 PAGE 4
With the many adjustments we have seen this year to our parish way of life, our Annual festival will not be able to be held in the manner we have grown to know and love. Although we are unable to have our usual festival activities, we have come up with alternate plans to keep the “heart” of our festival going given the restrictions we must follow. A modified Parish Festival will take place on Sunday, August 9th. We hope this will allow for some Parish fun as a Parish family.
The popular 50/50 raffle tickets are available at the back of all the churches. We are asking that you purchase the tickets for $10. Your tickets will be entered into the Summer 50/50 raffle drawings. Beginning immediately, every time the 50/50 reaches $500 we will pull a ticket for a
new winner. By purchasing your 50/50 tickets early you will be eligible for all of the drawings! Additional tickets are available upon request or may be purchased at the office. All tickets must be turned into the Parish office by noon on Monday, August 31, to be eligible for the final drawing. Keep the tickets that say “keep this coupon”. Please write your name and telephone number on the back of the other tickets. Return those tickets along with your $10 to the office or in a separate envelope via the collection basket or mail them to the Parish Center, 349 Morris Street, Clymer PA 15728. Winners do not need to be present at the time of the drawing.
We will be holding the annual Basket Raffle under the tent that day as well. If you would like to do-nate a basket or any items to create a basket, please call Janet Receski (724-465-7566). You may also drop off your baskets at the church office. Please consider donating a basket or items to help make this Bas-ket Raffle a huge success! This is always a favored part of the festival, everyone enjoys seeing all the amazing baskets and getting a chance to win one.
Below is a volunteer sign up form. If you haven’t already spoken with someone about donating or volunteering, please use the form below. WE NEED YOUR HELP TO MAKE THIS BASKET RAFFLE A SUCCESS, so please lend your time and/or your treasure.
Thank you in advance for your support of this very important parish event! We are looking forward to seeing you on Sunday, August 9th! Please spread the word!

PUBLIC MASS GUIDELINES
It is with such great joy that we started having public Masses on June 1, 2020. There are a few important guidelines we would like to highlight today as we have begun to return to Mass.
1. The Sunday Mass obligation remains lifted by Bishop Malesic for the foreseeable future to all the faithful in the Dio-cese of Greensburg. This means that no one is required to attend Masses. Diocesan streamed Masses will continue.
2. Masks will be required upon attendance of all Masses. Please bring your own mask with you. We will have a few extra new masks at every site just in case you don’t have one but please be mindful there are only a few.
3. Please respect social distancing. Seating will be 6 feet apart. Families of the same household may sit together. Ushers will help guide you to seating upon entry. 4. Hand sanitizer will be placed at all entry ways and we ask that you please sanitize upon entry and exit of our churches. 5. Please refrain from socializing in church before or after Mass to prevent close gatherings. 6. Singing will be kept to a minimum. 7. Offertory baskets will be placed in a stationary location and not passed around. 8. At the Sign of Peace, please simply give a wave or other non-touch gesture to those around you. 9. All are encouraged to receive communion in the hand. 10. There will be no greeting after Masses so that all may return to their vehicles without gathering.
As part of our recommencement plan, we, like other parishes, will see a few adjustments to our weekend and daily Mass schedule temporarily. I want to emphasize temporarily for these modifications are only in place to allow our staff to properly abide by all regulations we are required to follow. We will maintain a clean and sanitized environment in all our church sites!
