Collection for Ukraine—This Weekend!
Two high school students from our parish, Nora Pierce and Mackenzie Holian, are collecting for a certified nonprofit, personal hygiene products for Ukrainian orphanages and refugee camps that are in need. Nora and Mackenzie have also done research to find a reliable resource to help ship these products overseas. All donations (soaps, shampoo, toothpaste, tooth brushes, deodorant, etc.) can be placed in the marked boxes at the doors of the church this weekend.

May Procession to honor Our Blessed Mother
Sunday, May 8, after the 9 AM Mass
Our May Procession is a beloved tradition that we are pleased we can have this year. The May Procession will take place outside. We will begin by the front doors of the church and end at the statue of Mary for the crowning of our Blessed Mother. Flowers will be handed out (or you may bring your own flowers) to be placed in front of our statue of Mary.
In the event of rain, we will modify the procession and instructions will be given at the end of the 9 AM Mass. Our First Communion students are invited to wear their First Communion outfits and to lead the procession.
Rosary Procession in Honor of Our Lady of Fatima
Sunday, May 15 at 2 PM
(Rain date: May 22)
Each year in May, the Church honors the Blessed Virgin Mary, our Queen and our Mother, in special ways. The Legion of Mary invites you to join them for a Rosary Procession around the church. We will unite as a parish, praying the Rosary to honor Our Blessed Mother, while thanking her for all the graces and blessings she has bestowed on us and ask her for her continued intercession in all our needs.
