PARISH NEWS

---

Due to a trio of couples within our parish celebrating milestone Wedding Anniversaries at the same time, Father has agreed to move the Mass on Saturday, June 21st to 4:00pm to allow their families some party time with them after the mass. The couples are:

Erasmo & Ophelia Flores--55 Years

Roy & Cathy Frazier--50 Years

Robert & Annette Pruski--50 Years.

Quite an accomplishment and such a blessing. We are so thankful to them for including us in their celebration. May God’s Blessings shower upon them and their families.

In these challenging times, we invite you to a special event next weekend. 

Following all Masses, Noel Alshomali from Land of Peace, a not-for-profit organization will be with us to shed light on the struggles faced by Christians in the Holy Land. This mission aims to bring hope and support to Christian families and churches in the Middle East, who are enduring continuous violence and a decline in tourism. Your participation can help make a profound difference. 

Available for purchase will be religious articles made from Olive Wood, a material native to the Holy Land and Bethlehem. These items, including
crucifixes and rosaries, offer a tangible connection to a land that holds deep spiritual significance. We encourage you to join us and support this meaningful cause. For more information, please visit [http://www.landofpeace.org."]www.landofpeace.org."
