Bring your devotional candles to the 6:30 a.m. Mass on Thursday, which is the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord. The candles will be blessed at the very beginning of Mass. If you cannot make the Mass you are welcome to place your candles on the table at the back of the church today and pick them up tomorrow or Friday. On Friday, the feast of St. Blase, throats will be blessed with newly blessed candles after the homily at the 8:15 a.m. Mass.

If you are interested in helping to plan our observance of this important anniversary, please contact Father Scott. The cornerstone for the original church was dedicated by Bishop Wood on September 13, 1873. We will begin our year-long celebration with a parish mission in the last week of September, led by the Fathers of Mercy. A committee is being formed to plan events, and your ideas are welcome. Some options are a parish gala, wine and cheese party, updated parish history (last written in 1973), new parishioner photo directory, and more. If interested in being part of the planning, please email Father Scott at [email protected] or see him after Mass.
