COVID and in the light of our Synod on Synodality”
1. The parish seeks to update its list of parishioners who are shut-in and sick at home. Please call or email Fr. Rocco or Joy to inform them of your special needs. We will be inviting parishioners in the weeks ahead to the ministry of serving our sick and shut-ins.
2. Registration has begun for the 2022-2023 Family Faith Formation Program. Our next Sunday registration will take place on Sunday, May 22 after all of the Masses in the rectory. Please note that all returning students must register anew. Details about the program can be found on the parish website. You can also call the rectory and make an appointment for registration. Finally, you can ask a Minister of Hospitality for our bilingual flyer describing the registration process for the coming year.
