Parish Directory: It is time to re-do our photo-directory and we need a coordinator. Do you like calling people? Organizing events? Do you have some extra time to volunteer to the parish? Please let Fr. Tim know if you are interested in heading up this important project. Bulletin Mail-out: Do you have some time for, and interest in a vital, but behind the scenes ministry?

Tim know.
