Child Safety A video presentation for adults – especially parents! Sunday, May 4 at 9:50 in the Gathering Space Note: this presentation is not intended for children or youth. We encourage all adults, especially parents to attend, but ask you to make other arrangements for your children. It is a Religious Ed Sunday and regular classes will be happening at that time.
Gold Paten The new gold paten (dish that holds the hosts) that we are using at Mass was given in Loving Memory of Robert L. Pringle. Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul and the souls of all the faithful departed rest in peace.

Eucharistic Adoration "I cannot thank God enough for the grace He has given you in making you a perfect victim of Jesus Christ, and adorer of the Blessed Sacrament. What a privilege for your soul to do here below what the Angels and Saints are doing in heaven so sweetly and gloriously although you have not their understanding nor their light of glory but only the feeble light of faith. Faithful adorers give so much glory to God here on earth but they are so few, for even the very spiritual want to taste and see otherwise they loose interest and slacken off' but faith alone suffices'." From a letter by St. Louis Montfort Priest, Missionary,Founder; to his sister Louise,a Benedictine Sister of the Blessed Sacraments. Adoration is Fridays from 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm
"Relay for Life" It's that time again to sign up to support our St. Mary's Relay for Life team. I will be available after each Mass for the next couple of weeks to receive donations and to sign up walkers. We also will have luminaries available again to remember or honor your loved one. This will be our third year participating in this worthwhile fundraiser. This year's Relay for Life will be taking part on June 27 and 28 at West Albany High School. Come and join us while we walk for a cure. If you have any questions or any ideas on how to decorate our "campsite" feel free to give me a call: 926-3331 (home) or 760-1620 (cell). If I'm not available please leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can. Thank you for your help and support! Kathie Caldwell-Sullivan.
