Dear Parishoners,
 

Well it is the Fourth of July weekend, a weekend traditionally of barbeques, parades, and fireworks. This year with the Corona Virus
things will change such as gatherings will be limited, there will be no parades, but we will still celebrate the 4^th.

Maybe this year with a different mindset we will actually take time to remember what the holiday actually represents which is that we are free and able to
govern ourselves. We should make it our responsibility to give thanks for our freedom by attending mass and praying for the nation.
 
This weekend the Little Sisters of the Poor were to be here for their annual Door Collection but unfortunately they cannot be here due
to the Corona Virus. The virus has taken a financial toll on their ministry with needed extra help and by keeping the home clean and safe.

You can contribute to the sisters by putting a donation in the basket labeled Little Sisters or contribute via their website.
www.littlesistersofthepoortotowa.org 
or mail a contribution made out to Little Sisters to the parish and we can forward it to them. 

The parish has had a history of supporting them. So please assist them in their ministry.
 
Masses are on the regular schedule Monday thru Saturday at 8:00am;
the Lord’s Day Vigil on Saturday 5:00pm and Sunday 9:00am and 11:30am.

All masses will be streamed via FaceBook also.
 
Remember we are here and there are bills to be paid. You can use on-line giving or mail in your contribution.
 
Have a
Happy and Safe weekend.

Fr. Rich
