HOPE CHEST DONORS PLAQUE
A draft of the Hope Chest Building Campaign Star Donors plaque is on display in the entrance.  We have verified spelling of names; however, there still may be mistakes.  Please notify the office of any corrections.  The Campaign is now over the plaque will go to the engraver before the summer.   

ADULT ALTAR SERVERS
We are in need of altar servers for our Saturday, 4:30 p.m. mass.  As we cannot get the youth to serve at this mass on a regular basis, we would like to establish a pool of adult altar servers who would be scheduled.  To start, we would just need one adult to serve with the responsibility of carrying the cross at the beginning and end of mass.  Training will be provided.  Please see Maria Santoro or Fr. Larry.

PRAYER FOR MOTHERS

Mother Mary, Queen of Heaven, And model for mothers everywhere, you were often asked to put your trust in God.  When faced with the challenge of an unmarried pregnancy, you did all you could and trusted God.
When faced with the challenge
Of an exceptional child,
You did all you could, and trusted God.
When faced with the abuse of your child,
You did all you could and trusted God.
And for all your trust, your Son glorified you in joy,
making you Queen.
Help me to trust as you did,
In the face of all challenges,
With the grace of your Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen .
