Get your Ham Dinner Raffle tickets!

Please grab your tickets in the back of church. Ladies from the Sodality will be out in the back to collect and/or hand out your tickets. Reminder to use these as a perfect invitation to bring someone to St. Mary’s; reach out to those who have left, or those who are in need. Don’t be tempted to just buy all your tickets and be done with it. Take courage and do a little outreach. When you’ve exhausted all those options, then buy the rest—but at least give it a go and try. Also, Father Clayton is HOSTING a FAMILY BBQ, for whoever sells the most raffle tickets!

Ladies Wine & Flower Night

Please join us Thursday, Feb. 20th @ 6:30 pm to put together flower arrangements for the church for the Lenten season. Wine will be provided! Feel free to bring a snack/appetizer to share.

DISHES

There are many serving dishes and containers in the church hall from funeral dinners and other events which have not been picked up by their owners. Please go grab them and take them home. If they’re still there by the ham dinner, they will become church property. Thank you!

Holy Hour for Penance and Healing

Bishop Callahan asks that each parish hold a Holy Hour for Penance and Healing on Saturday, February 22nd. It is in response to the clergy sexual abuse and the public release of names, of past clergy with a substantiated allegation of child sexual abuse. Adoration and confessions are from 5:30-6:30pm. Please sign up in the back of church for adoration. “True, Our Lord hears our prayers anywhere, for He has made the promise, ‘Ask, and you shall receive’, but He has revealed to His servants that those who visit Him in the Blessed Sacrament will obtain a more abundant measure of grace.” – St. Alphonsus Ligouri
