Anniversaries

Beginning in January, 2002 on the 1st Sunday of each month at all Masses, all couples who are celebrating a Wedding anniversary that specific month will be blessed.  It will not be necessary to attend a specific Mass nor call in your name ahead.  You will simply be asked to stand where you are for a special blessing.

If you are celebrating your 25th, 50th, 55th, 60th, 65th anniversary, please notify Ellen Halloran at 397-3312 Ext. 301.  These couples will be honored at the Mass they attend that first weekend of the month.  Instead of a carnation for the couples, the Parish will be giving them a Papal blessing.  Please help us plan in advance. 

If you are celebrating a special anniversary in the year 2002, please notify us now so that we can procure your Papal Blessing from the Vatican in time for your celebration.
 

Come Celebrate !!!

Every First Friday after the 8:30 Mass  we honor those having a birthday or anniversary during that month.  Sign up at the table in the Narthex and join us for a coffee and goodies on the First Friday.  All are welcome.
