2026 08 16 The Feast of St. Mary the Virgin (Observed), Rite II, officiated by Dcn. Rick Littlejohn. St. Mary is our patronal saint, so we always give the Sunday nearest to the date of her feast priority. This year it was yesterday. Thank you, Dcn. Rick for leading and preaching an inspiring sermon. Each of us should regularly pray and ask God to let us know the purpose He has for our lives – as He did when the Angel Gabriel announced it to Mary. Yesterday was also the ECW’s Summer Bazaar. It was well attended and a great success. All the proceeds from the Garage, Bake and Lunch (about $1500) are donated to local charities the church, through ECW, supports, other than about $100 admin costs. Lunches served about 80 people and sold out!!
