- This week St. Vivian’s is hosting Vacation Bible School for our Family of Parishes. We have one child who is attending it and I am going to be a volunteer every day from 8:30 AM to 12:30 PM. I probably will not answer my cell phone during that time, so if you need to talk to me, it would be better if you called in the afternoon.
- Beginning next Sunday, July 3, we will be collecting laundry detergent throughout the month. Whatever we collect will be divided between Mother of Christ Pantry and the St. Vincent de Paul Society at St. Bernard’s. Remember that some people are walking to the pantry and the St. Vincent de Paul volunteers are hand-delivering packages to clients, so small containers of detergent are best.
- On Saturday, July 30 we will be helping our neighbors at St. Bart’s with their festival by working the French Fry booth. There is a paper on the podium as you come into the church to sign up for a two-hour shift. Leviticus is our chairperson and will have forthcoming information concerning parking and other “need to know” items. The money generated by the booth will come to Mother of Christ. Although many of you would be willing to help, I need to remind you that you should be able to stand and serve customers most of the time. Since we don’t have a festival ourselves, this is a fairly easy fundraiser and an opportunity to meet and help the people in one of our Family of Parishes.
- How about making a retreat this summer at the Jesuit Retreat House in Milford? June 3-10, July 8 – 15, or August 5 -12. You can do 4 of these days or all 7. You can understand your own story more deeply and connect it to the Big Story through private conversation each day with one of the retreat directors: Helen O’Brien, Richard Bollman, Todd Long, Bob Thesing, and Donna Steffen. Call 513 – 248 – 3500.
PLEASE REMEMBER THE SICK AND SHUT-IN!
