RENOVATIONS (FURTHER NEWS):-
We have had to make a slight change to our renovations. After opening up the roof in two trial areas, it was found
that only half of the building can be properly insulated. As it is, the church portion has absolutely no insulation nor
is there room for any without great expense (It would take about 30 to 40
years to make up the cost). Total
cost of the project: including insulation in the hall but not the church is
$65,000. QUILT

Please pick up your books. The
success of this fund raiser depends on your continued support.

Cardinal
Giuseppe Sarto A friend once asked if he could celebrate Mass
at a very early hour the next day, trusting that the Cardinal would ask
someone to make all the arrangements. The
next morning, his friend asked him “Who will serve?” The Cardinal volunteered himself. The priest objected. “Why
do you object?” Cardinal Sarto asked. “Do
you not think a person of my rank knows how to serve Mass?”
