Great parish Work Day last Saturday - note from Father Brady

Many thanks to all those who came out and helped on the parish workday last weekend. Approximately 25 people attended and helped to clean up and repair our church, rectory and Valentin Hall.

It was not only a day of service to the parish, but also a day of fellowship with other parishioners. We were blessed with beautiful weather, and it seems that not only was much accomplished, but a good time was had by all. Thanks again!!!

Father James Brady
