There will be a special collection next weekend, August 3rd / 4th for the Extension Society. This collection helps support and strengthens poor mission dioceses across the United States. Please be generous in your support.
Tickets for our parish raffle are now available to sell. We are in need of assistance in helping to sell tickets. We have some great prizes this year which include a 1-week stay at a Gulf Shores condo, a 2-night stay at South Beach in Biloxi, $100 restaurant gift certificates, an “Ice Chest of Cheer”, a 50” T.V., an iPad and other great prizes! Please call the office or see any Parish Council member for tickets.
TICKETS ARE $10 EACH
We are in need of “cleaning crews” to clean our church for the months of August, December and February. A crew usually consists of four to five people and that group is responsible for cleaning the church for a month. Some of the groups are short-handed. Our goal is to have enough crews so each crew would be on the schedule once a year. This is also a great family service project for your parish! Please call the office if you are able to help.
Blessed Seelos offers an additional way to memorialize a deceased family member, or to honor
or celebrate a special event, by sponsoring a Sanctuary Lamp in Church for a full week. The Sanctuary Lamp offerings are $20 each. Remembrance begins on Sunday and ends on Saturday of your scheduled week. Please call the office for more information. The special intentions for the Sanctuary Lamp will be printed in the bulletin, where we additionally ask our faithful Parishioners to keep those
intentions in their prayers.
We are looking for teachers and assistants for our CCD program. As you help these young people grow in their faith and love of God, you will grow in your own!! We would love to have you join this vital learning ministry for our youth! If you are interested in volunteering, please call Kristy Arguelles at 228-324-9934. Classes begin in September!
JULY 27th and 28th Blessed Seelos Mercy House
