St. Vincent de Paul is always in need of travel sized toiletries to help the needy. Your generosity in this regard has been tremen-dously helpful in the past. If you are able to assist us in this way, please place them in the bin across from the church ofHice in the back of the church. Have a wonderful holiday and a blessed New Year. Thank you.

Eucharistic adoration is a practice in which the Blessed Sacrament is exposed and adored by the faithful. We are looking to ofHicially begin having adoration offered throughout the day, but we cannot do it without your help. If you are interested in becoming an adorer for the adoration chapel please sign up on the sign up sheet in the vesti-bule with your name, the hours that you are available to volunteer and your phone number.

Please note that Fr. Paschal, Fr. Kenny and Fr. Patrick will be away at a retreat for the week of January 2nd -9th. There will be com-munion services in lieu of daily mass most of that week. Let us pray for safe travels and a safe return.
