Low-Gluten Host Low-Gluten hosts are now available upon request. Please speak with Fr. Paul or Deacon Pat.
Second Collection Next weekend there will be a special collection for the needs of the missions within our own diocese. There are civil parishes and other areas that have very few Catholics. There are also rural areas where only elderly remain and the population is dwindling. You are asked to let your charity begin at home so that assistance can be given to these needy areas to sustain the Gospel message.
