You are invited to be a part of the Eucharistic Procession near the end of the 11:00 Mass on Sunday. The procession will be led by Fr. Patrick carrying the Eucharist in a monstrance. The procession will go around the outside of the church building. It will go out the south entrance door onto Pembroke, go west to Evergreen, come back in through the parking lot, and re-enter the church at that north entrance. The weather forecast for then is mostly sunny and in the mid-70’s. Hope you can join us!

“Consider Catholicism”
Is someone you know wondering about your church, your faith, your beliefs, your Bible, your prayers, your worship services, or any other aspect of our Catholic religion? We have a casual process for such people to ask questions about our Catholic faith and practices. We are calling it “Considering Catholicism?” and are having sessions on Sunday mornings from 9:30am to 10:30am in the Rainbow Room. There will be a “Considering Catholicism?” sign on the door to help them find the room. The first session will be on Sunday, July 24th and will continue on most Sundays from then until September 18th.
Care to know any more about these sessions? Please contact Dcn Paul Mueller at [email protected].What is up for the Children this Summer?
