Regular Sunday Schedule Returns Sunday
We are returning to our regular schedule with 2 masses: 8:00am and 10:30am. We will be having a Welcome Back Potluck in the Parish Hall at 3 pm. Please note: we were planning to thank Father Matt during the potluck on Sunday, but he won’t be able to be with us this Sunday, so we will plan to thank him during the reception for Michaelmas on Sept. 29th. We are still going ahead with the potluck though, so please bring a dish of your choice!
