A happy Friday afternoon to all! Attached is our bulletin for this Sunday, November 20th, the The Solemnity of Our Lord Jesus Christ, King of the Universe, and a reflection from Fr. Canisius.
Altar Flowers for this weekend have been donated by
Robert & Mary Anthony
in celebration of
their 76th wedding anniversary.
(If you would like to donate flowers in memory of a loved one, or in celebration of a special occasion, contact the parish office at charlesst@comcast.net)
Our second collection this weekend supports the Catholic Campaign for Human Development (CCHD) which funds programs across the U.S. that help poor and marginalized people find ways to improve their lives. Thank you for your generosity.
Gently Used Items Needed for the Homeless
As cold weather sets in, St. Vincent de Paul Church (Fr. Ray's parish) needs gently used men's hoodies, jackets, blankets, sleeping bags, and sturdy shoes for the homeless men they serve. Check your closets and cupboards for any items you are no longer using and help make someone’s winter a little warmer. Donations can be brought to the rectory (9am-3pm, Mon-Fri) or left with other Giving Tree gifts at the tree in church on the weekends through 12/4. Thank you!
Chances for our Basket Raffle are on sale after Masses this weekend, by mail order, and online. Winners will be drawn at our Christmas Open House on the weekend of December 17th/18th. See the attached list of baskets and use the order form to purchase your tickets by mail, or click the link below to purchase your tickets online today!
More baskets are always welcome. If you would like to donate a basket, or items we could use to create a basket, contact Pamela Wright at pbwright029@gamil.com or 410-655-9188
I Can See Clearly Now…
…the Windows Have Been Replaced!
This week the installers finished our rectory window replacement project! All the rectory windows are now double-pane, energy-efficient models. Good to look at and good for the budget, they will help us to reduce future energy costs. And they’re easy to open, too!
Join us for Mass on Thanksgiving morning (11/24) at 9:00am as we offer our praise to God for his abundant blessings. Bring an item from your holiday table to be blessed during the liturgy.
