WELCOME TO ALL SAINTS CATHOLIC CHURCH

Spring has come and gone but the weeds are still here! If you would like to help with weeding, trimming and general clean-up, please call Angela at [# omitted]. Everyone is welcome to help!

STEWARDSHIP THOUGHT

Parish cookbooks are available in the office during regular office hours (7:30am-3:30pm, M-F). Great gifts for any special occasion! If you have any special days coming up, we suggest you purchase your cookbooks now as our supply is dwindling and there will be no reordering.

During this time, we celebrate the independence of our country. We would do well to echo the psalmist, saying, “Our eyes are fixed on the Lord, pleading for His mercy.” May we always recognize and use wisely the gifts of freedom and abundance He has showered upon us.

VOCATION THOUGHT Look with new eyes at the people in your neighborhood. Whose son or daughter has the capacity to serve God’s people as a priest, brother, or sister. Read Mark 6: 1-6.
