Hello Holy Spirit Catholic Church Parishioners,

Please use caution when navigating the parking lots for Mass this weekend. Many volunteers have helped to clear the parking area and sidewalks of snow and we greatly appreciate all of their time and energy spent to improve the conditions!

As the ice continues to melt, it can be very difficult to determine what’s ice and what’s water so please be very careful when walking to and from your vehicles!

Participants and parents attending the Knights of Columbus Free Throw Contest are asked to please park in the church parking lots and enter the gym from the doors at the playground. The North parking lots are still snow packed and unavailable for use.

Thank you for being mindful of the condition of our grounds following the winter storms. I pray everyone continues to stay safe as the thawing progresses.

Thank you!
