Happy Mother's Day
Our sincere prayer is extended to all Mothers's as we honor you on this
very special day. Mother's are truly the heart of the family and we trust
that your family will take time on this day to say: I Love You. To all
Moms who have died, we pray that the love they shared generously in this
life will truly be forever praised by our God. To all Mothers who are
living, may you be showered with abundant blessings on this day and
throughout the year. Happy Mother's Day.
New Stage
Our parish has completed a new stage for our parish hall and it is through
the generous donation of Mr. Kevin George. Mr. George has completed a new
aluminum stage which we can use for various events in our hall especially
our annual Dinner Theater, St. Patrick's Day concert and other
entertainment. I wish to thank Mr. George for his donation and to his
staff for their assistance in assembling the stage.
Immaculate Conception School
St. Michael's Parish has for sale the building of Immaculate Conception
School. We have 60 days to sell this property or else it will be reverted
back to the school board for demolition. We are saddened to see another
building end its long and historic presence in our town but I hope someone
within our town or outside will identify another use for the property. For
more information, contact the Parish or John Kent, Chairperson of Finance
Committee for our parish. You may contact the parish for more information
concerning the financial offer you wish to make and the intent as to what
you will use the building for in the future . The deadline for the tender
for the purchase of the building will be Tuesday, May 31st: 5:00p.m. The
highest tender is not necessarily the one to be accepted. All tenders will
be discussed with the finance committee and the archdiocese and then one
of the tenders may be accepted.
Sacrament of Confirmation : Sunday, May 15th
Next Sunday we will celebrate the sacrament of confirmation in our parish
at the 10:30 a.m. mass. This mass will be a little longer and following
the celebration, a social will be held at the parish hall. It is necessary
that those who are to be confirmed must attend a rehearsal on Saturday,
May 14th at 1:00 p.m.
Congratulations
We extend congratulations and best wishes to the students of St. Michael's
High who are the graduating class for the year 2004 - 2005. We salute all
students and encourage them to study hard and reap the great reward of
completing your level 3 year with success. We assure you of our prayers
and remind you: Keep Christ in your hearts.
Financial Campaign
The annual financial campaign for the archdiocese will take place on May
29th and June 5th . I ask for your support for this campaign as it will
help once again to fund pastoral care services in the diocese. These
services include: Hospitals, Nursing Homes, School for Deaf, university
and prison . These services are paid for by the diocese and are not
government funded.
For example our parish receives $200.00 per month from the diocese due to
the work I do at the four senior homes in the city. Therefore, our parish
receives generously and we should give generously to the cause.
