Annual Church PicnicImage of a Picnic
School is out, the temperature is high, and the calendar says it’s time once again for our Annual Church Picnic. Would anyone like to be in charge this year? Fr. Weber says his humble abode is once again available or would you rather go somewhere else? Give it some thought and let’s talk about it next week!

We all enjoy meeting after Liturgy for fellowship and snacks, but our Pantry is running low on a few things and needs your help. Every week we use napkins, small paper plates, forks, and Styrofoam cups and our supply is dwindling. We do not need sugar substitutes/sweeteners; thanks to Bill Pett we have a lifetime supply! However, we do need plastic forks (no spoons or knives), Styrofoam cups for coffee (small, not large), small paper plates and napkins. Please consider donating an item or two.
