St. Matthias Parishioners,

This weekend, July 28-29, is "New Church Weekend" at St. Matthias where we can spend time to pray for our campaign and hear recent news about plans for our new church.

After each of the Sunday Masses, the Fr. Frank Jones Knights of Columbus council will be serving an "all you can eat" meal for $5 per person benefiting the campaign for our new church.  For each $5 plate sold, the Knights will contribute another $10 to the campaign.  So, your $5 will go along way both in satisfying your hunger and in helping your parish meet our campaign goals.  The 8am and 10:30am Masses will have a pancake breakfast with bacon, eggs, sausage and more.  The 1pm Mass will enjoy hot dogs.

There will be a bake sale after the Saturday 5pm Mass hosted by the Campaign Fundraising team and our Wedding and Funeral Ministry.

Our model church will be in the narthex so you can bag up the coins you've been saving at home in the green church banks and drop them in the model church as you arrive.  Your gifts will be presented as part of the Offertory Procession.

After each Mass, a speaker will give a short update on the status of our campaign.

There will be a second collection for our campaign.  You can take this opportunity to offer your pledge gift using the pink campaign envelope or any gift desired.

Tables will be outside the church and in the parish hall with members of the Campaign team to answer questions you have or to assist you with pledges.

Please continue to pray for the success of our campaign.
