The new Parish directories are at the Rectory. If you had your family portrait taken for the directory and have not received it as of yet, please stop by the rectory during regular business hours and pick it up. Please sign for it also. Thank you

Wondering when the Church Directory will be arriving? There is only good news! The "proof" has been approved and will arrive in the very near future.

HOLY WEEK HOLY WEEK: Let us all make an extra effort at making Holy Week this year very special in our lives. Let us pray more and do something special for others. One good thing you can do is to invite family members or friends who have drifted away from the church to come to the Holy Week Services and Easter Mass with you. It could be your reaching out to them that might bring them back to the church and the sacraments

Once again may I take this opportunity to sincerely than you, even though I cannot thank you often enough, for your cooperation and contributions especially in terms of money and time in our parish work. May the Days of Holy Week and the Easter Season give you happiness for all your days on earth and prepare you for eternal life. Remember that we celebrate the Easter Season for Fifty Day. Sincerely in Christ, Fr. Raphael Baidoo, O.Ss.T
