Two Anointing Masses This Week
This week, Mass with the Rite of Anointing of the Sick will be held on Wednesday at 12noon and Saturday at 9am. The Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick may be received by anyone over the age of 65 every 6 months, or anyone who is suffering from an illness. In the case of a Mass, the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick is celebrated immediately after the homily.

From Our Pastor
Dear Folks
If you are reading this over a cup of coffee at Metro diner, then thank you for participating in our Parish Life Weekend. (And for all of you who read the bulletin during Mass …. you have no excuse for not stopping on the way out this morning).
As has become a tradition, purely for your entertainment, and knowing that I have no future career as a comedian, here are this year’s top excuses given for not signing up for a ministry today:
“I am busy playing replays of the Capitals Stanley Cup run!.” (Finally a winner in town).
“I was busy with Snapchat, what did you say?”
“I parked on Stafford Avenue so I can escape.”
“I only sign up for Costco samples.”
“When the going gets tough, I forget the rest.”
“My Fortnite squad needs me.”
“I tried to join the Movie Ministry.”
“I have to run a napping marathon.”
“I helped last year… and need to recover.”
“If I exceed my goals, I’ll only have to work harder in the future.”
with a smile,
Fr. Mosimann
