Please Help! This Friday is our
final Lenten Fish Fry

you to everyone who
helped! But, we need help one
last time! We have to clean the

Easter Flowers
Mass offered for those named
At Easter, flowers are abundant in the
Church as a sign of new life and hope.
The white lilies represent the miracle of
the Resurrection. Their beauty is a comfort. There are
special envelopes for flowers in your donation-packet. If
you put the donation in the name of someone living or
dead there is a special Mass by which they may receive
the graces from that infinite sacrifice.
If you do not have a donation packet with the special
envelope, just place at least $10 in an envelope and
mention the name of the person you want remembered.
The special Mass for the intentions of all these folks will
be at the Mass on Saturday, April 22nd at 4pm. Consider
providing for these flowers in the name of a loved one
and attending the Mass too, if you can!
Pray for our Candidates Please pray for our RCIA members, Christopher
Judkins, Samantha Judkins, and Christopher Russ they
are in their last week of preparation. Please come to the
Easter Vigil to support and pray for them as they enter full
communion with the Catholic Church.
