Dear Friend,
We hope you are having a great week! Keep enjoying summer because soon and very soon.... school will be back in session and we'll be laser focused on whether the Cubs can play baseball in October. Then again, maybe we're already laser focused. That's not necessarily a bad thing!
A quick reminder that this Thursday, August 15, 2019 is the Solemnity of the Assumption of Mary which is a Holy Day of Obligation. We will have Mass at 7:00pm on Thursday in our main church.
Below are a few key notices for Saint Andrew parish in the week ahead.

It's E-Giving Prime Week!
This week we have a goal of signing up 25 parishioners to initiate recurring contributions through Give Central. E-giving greatly helps our parish by regulating our monthly contributions. As an incentive this week, if you are one of the first 25 to sign up for E-giving between today and August 18, you will receive a $10 card to Regal Cinemas. This incentive was made possible by a generous donor. Sign up now at www.standrew.org/give
