Just a reminder that the season of Lent begins on Ash Wednesday, March 9th. (FYI: Easter falls on Sunday, April 24th). Our parish, as a Community, will be celebrating traditional practices (Mass, Stations, Soup & Bread, & Fish Fry’s) as well as the family Rice Bowl. Nevertheless, it is good to personally prepare yourself — beginning now — so that you can really celebrate this season.

On Sunday, Oct. 31st, we will celebrate our annual Fall Festival. We will have only one Mass (9 a.m.) and the Religious Education Program will have class at the regular time.
After class, the fiesta begins! It will be a “Pot Luck” style so, bring what you wish. If previous years are an example, get ready to enjoy a lot of food from many countries. And we always like to see the children in their Halloween costumes. So, from now on, all of us have to pray for good weather!
