Monthly Potluck Social
Our next monthly potluck social will be held after Mass on Sunday, July 28. Please bring a dish to share! Crockpots welcome! A good rule of thumb is to bring twice as much food as is typically required to feed your own family.
Matching Challenge for the Fairfield Carmelites
The Carmelite sisters in Fairfield have a matching challenge until July 31. Recently a couple in Connecticut offered to match all contributions up to $500,000 received by the Carmel. That means that if their community of benefactors can raise $500,000, the couple will match it with $500,000 for a total of $1,000,000! This money will enable the sisters to complete the interior of the extern oratory, the bell tower, and continue work on the main Chapel’s foundation. To contribute, please CLICK HERE.
Adoration
Adoration takes place on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays during the day and throughout the night in the Adoration Chapel. To obtain a chapel key fob for chapel access, please call the rectory at 717-397-6921 ext. 213.
