From the Flocknote Coordinator
How Sweet It Is and How Blessed We Are!
How wonderful it is to be back in church and being able to sing again! I'd like to take a moment to express gratitude to those who kept us going during the days of COVID isolation and distancing. I have no doubt that you all share my sentiments. Note: While I was involved in several areas, I'm not going to include my name below. Suffice it to say I am honored to have been a part of this extraordinary team.
- Fr. Bill and the parish staff (Michele Bouvier, Kenny Choquette, and volunteer Gen Strakosz)
- Adult altar servers (Adam Cormier — also Master of Ceremonies for our special liturgies, Bill Zukowski, Laurie Zukowski)
- Musicians: Cantors Sandy Fritze, Joe Konkol; Organ Ray Delisle (also cantor) and Lou Fazio
- Readers: Ralph Hicks, Debbie Kirk, Diane Ledoux, Mary McLaughlin, Gen Strakosz, Mary Sweet, Bill Zukowski, Sylvia Berthiaume, Phyllis Lamontagne
- Communications (social media, website, Facebook live-streamed Masses): Adam Cormier, Ken Choquette, Kelly Sullivan; Ray Delisle, website
If I have missed anyone, please let me know; it certainly was not intentional.
Recently, we welcomed back our youth altar servers and last weekend, our Eucharistic Ministers. It really feels like we are on the road back to normalcy!

July Calendar Raffle
You know the drill — calendars for the July raffle were sent out last week. Each calendar is $10. Extra calendars are available on our website, at the Parish Office, and included below for your convenience. Feel free to print as many as you need. Need a suggestion?
- Buy one yourself and sell one to someone else.
- Buy both yourself. Or buy more than the 2 enclosed in the mailing!
- Buy one as a gift for someone — maybe a friend or relative who would like to participate but cannot afford it. You just never know...they just might receive a little extra cash!
This month's calendar proceeds will go toward starting a fund to replace the floor covering in the church hall.

If you did not receive the Flocknote or have not spoken with Susan Terkanian, please contact her at 508-885-4104 with her about continuing to serve as a Eucharistic Minister. Leave a message if she's not available and she will call you back
