ANNOUNCEMENTS
- Happy Mother’s Day! May our good God bless you abundantly for answering the call to nurture life into the world!
- If you can attend the synod meeting next Monday, the 20th, please sign up on the sheet in the hallway.
- Wednesday the 15th is the Feast of St. Isidore and St. Maria, a married couple who are the patron saints of farming and gardening. On the table in the hallway, pick up a prescription bottle that now has holy water in it and a prayer card. Take them home, and bless your vegetable garden, pots of tomato plants, window boxes, or flower pots on the porch while you pray the prayer on the card.
- How about a parish project for June? Matthew 25 Ministries is asking for help providing used clothing for adults working to clean up from the tornados and floods in Kansas City, Mississippi, Missouri, etc. Let’s clean out our closets, look for T-shirts, lightweight jeans and pants, and shorts, and/or buy new women’s or men’s underwear and lightweight socks. No clothes except work clothes and no children’s clothes – those are being dealt with by another agency. Keep looking during May, and then on the first Sunday in June, there will be large trash bags in the back of the church for the month, and you can put your clothing donations in there.
- Congratulations to our KPC winners from the convention two weeks ago: Vanessa Rozier – Grand Lady of 2024, Regina Chenault – raffle winner, and Caylee Johnson, high school scholarship winner. If you are celebrating a 25th, 40th, 50th, or 60th wedding anniversary in 2024 and have not told me about it, please give me your names and dates soon.
PLEASE REMEMBER THE SICK AND SHUT-IN!
