The roof on our Pre-K building, in which repair was desperately needed, was replaced last week! Old, broken shingles and gutters that could not be reattached, were removed, repairs were made, new plywood, underlayment, flashing, roof tiles and new gutters were added.

Join us in the Parish Center on Friday, May 2 for Country Line Dancing! A professional caller along with light refreshments are included in the ticket price of $20 for ticket purchases made prior to the event or $25 at the door. Don't miss out on this evening of fun and socializing with fellow parishioners! Contact our youth minister, Maggie, at the parish office with any questions!

Thank you to the many youth ministry teens that led us in prayer and reflections as we prayed the Stations of the Cross on Good Friday. This annual tradition has been done for decades, and our youth provide very poignant and thoughtful personal reflections at each station.

Thanks to our very generous parishioners, the parish is able to complete work needed on the bell tower and the pre-k building roof. The work on the bell tower continues to prevent leaking in the church over the balcony as well as repairing brickwork. The roof on the pre-k building is being replaced due to age. Thank you to all who donated to our Capital Campaign. Funds from this campaign are being used on many projects throughout our parish campus!
