Dear Parishioners,
 
Congratulations to Matthew and Alyssa McIntyre whose son Ryder is being baptized this Sunday.  Congratulations to Brendan and McKenna L'Hommedieu whose daughter Tess was baptized last Sunday.  We pray that both Ryder's and Tess' life will be guided by the Holy Spirit and that they will always know the love of their families and our parish community.
 
I will be available for the Sacrament of Penance on Monday, Dec. 16 from 4 - 4:45 p.m. and from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m.  You can also call the office and make an appointment.  Come and receive God's healing forgiveness as we prepare to celebrate Christmas.
 
Liturgical  ministers:  please sign up for our Christmas Masses and for New Year's Day Mass.  Many thanks.
