ONOR OUR PARISH PATRON: by contributing to
the second collection this weekend at all Masses.
Share your treasure with this parish dedicated to him as
generously as he has during these past 142 years.
C
HANK YOU: to the Rosary, Holy Name and St.
Anthony Society for donating the Bread and
Wine which will become the Body and Blood of
Christ at all Masses during the week of April 3rd.
ONGRATULATIONS: to Sister Filippa Luciano on
being honored by The Mary Louis Academy this past
Friday. She lives in our Convent, is a lector at Sunday
Mass and creates the Christmas/Easter plant designs for
our Church. She graduated from Mary Louis which she
now serves as both a teacher and Assistant Principal.
May God bless her and this school which helped her
become the woman of faith she is today and where she
presently helps young women to do the same.

HE GROUNDHOG WAS WRONG: winter is still here.
There will be Second Collection to pay for heating our
parish buildings at all Masses next weekend, April 9th and
10th. Fuel Oil is now $ 3.60 a gallon and our boilers are
very thirsty. Our monthly budget payments for all four
buildings was about $2,400.00 dollars; now they total
$12,000.00 dollars. To heat or not to heat - that is the
question. Only you have the answer.
W
EEKLY PARISH SUPPORT: totaled $1,601 dollars
this past weekend. On the same weekend last year
it totaled $1,628.00 dollars. This small decrease of
$27.00 dollars may not seem like much but here every
penny counts. St. Rita’s collection last weekend was
$3,526.00 dollars, St. Mary’s was $ 1,637.00 dollars and
Most Precious Blood was $8,101.00 dollars. Either our
weekly collections increase or your next set of parish
support envelopes may be coming from St. Rita’s,
St. Mary’s or Most Precious Blood.
C
ATHOLIC RELIEF SERVICES: benefited from your
donations at all Masses last weekend which totaled
$510.00 dollars. The sacrificial offerings of those faithful
few who regularly support these special collections truly
reflects the serious obligation all Roman Catholics have
to imitate the charity of Jesus Himself.
