A few reminders when attending Mass:

Sunday Missal 2021: Copies of the Sunday Missal are on sale for $5 for you to take home, as covid restrictions prevent us from leaving the missals in the pews, as we are accustomed to.  You can purchase a copy from Wayne as you enter the church for Mass or call the office to make arrangements. Please write your name on your copy so that we can return it to you if you leave it behind.
