This weekend, we invite everyone to stop by St. Joseph's altar to say a prayer for the spiritual renewal of the priesthood. We will be hosting a first-class relic of St. John Vianney, patron of parish priests and a model for the priest as a dedicated minister of God's grace to the people he serves.

At the conclusion of our Solemn Mass of Pentecost we had the beautiful custom of dropping rose petals from the ceiling, evoking the descent of the Holy Spirit upon the Blessed Virgin Mary and the disciples today. Come, Holy Spirit!

Do you wonder what the Building and Maintenance Collection goes to helping? Earlier this week we had work on the church and rectory roofs, both of which had some damage after this past winter's weather. All of these issues in the pictures have been fixed. The regular collection means we have a fund on hand to take care of these issues as soon as they arise, rather than having to fundraise for each individual situation as they arise. Thank you for your continued support!
