The 2008 Archbishop's Annual Appeal has started in our parish.  Soon you will receive a letter from Archbishop Mansell asking for your support.  Together we can make a difference. Our work as a Church in social services, education, healthcare, and pastoral services is exciting, challenging, and fulfilling.  It is work we must do together out of love for one another and for God.  Please respond as generously as possible.

Pro-Life Corner

There are many homeless people in this country; however there exists no industry dedicated to making people homeless.  Yet there is an industry dedicated to killing babies for profit; it is called 'Abortion on demand', 'Planned Parenthood', 'Pro-Choice'.  This barbaric, inhumane, socially destructive process must cease.

Communication

A local priest and pastor stood by the
side of the road holding up a sign that said,
"The End is Near! Turn yourself around now
before it's too late!"

They planned to hold up the sign to each passing car.

"Leave us alone, you religious nuts!"
yelled the first driver as he sped by.

From around the curve they heard a big splash.
"Do you think," said one clergy to the other,
"we should just put up a sign that says 'bridge out' instead?"
 

Almighty Father, we thank you for all the gifts You have given to us; 
our loved ones; all that we have and all that we are.  Most of all, we thank 
You for Jesus, Your Son and our Redeemer, who came among us to show 
us the way to eternal life.
    Jesus was the perfect Steward of Your gifts, showing us that complete 
trust in You is necessary, and that giving of self is a most important part of following Him.
    May the offerings of our time, our talents, and our material resources be 
made in the same spirit of sacrifice that Jesus taught us by His life and 
death for us. 

This Page is Dedicated in Loving Memory to all those who have
contributed so much to our Parish Community. 
Their dedication will always be remembered.
