ST. ANDREW’S CATHOLIC CHURCH MAY 3, 2020

Please return your Rice Bowls to the Parish Office Monday-Friday between 9:00am-1:00pm. If you prefer not to come to the office, you are welcome to send a check for your Rice Bowl donation.

Additional opportunities for Mass and Adoration can be found on DailyTVMass.com and Ewtn.com. They also offer a wide variety of devotionals and prayer resources to keep you spiritually fed during this time of crisis. Be sure to check it out!

St. Francis House is accepting much needed food donations at 836 Campbell Ave. Curb side drop off is available from 9:00am—12:00pm. Please call (540) 268-0044 to make a drop-off appointment. They need diapers, wipes and fresh produce. For other donation options, email Megan at

mgaskin@standrewsva.org. St. Francis House needs volunteers! If you do not fall into any of the vulnerable categories and can give a few hours of your time, they can use your help! Volunteering might be a bit scary with everything going on, but if you are interested, please get in touch with CCC. In light of that, they have sped up their volunteer process. Those interested can visit https://www.cccofva.org/volunteer to fill out an application. Be sure to specify that you're looking to volunteer with the food pantry. Once you complete your application, you'll be forwarded directly to staff that manages the food pantry.

News from Our Lady of Nazareth pool: The staff at OLN plans to open the pool as soon as they safely can. They will need life guards to staff the pool. If you or someone you know is interested in summer employment as a lifeguard, please download an application from the OLN Pool page on their

website at oln-parish.com. Once completed, the application can submitted to the church office or by email to secretary@oln-parish.com. They will process the applications as they learn more about when the pool can open.

St. Rosa Venerini

Feast day ~ May 7

May 7 is the feast of recently-canonized Italian

educator Saint Rosa Venerini, who founded

Catholic schools for girls and young women during

the late 17th and early 18th centuries.

St. Rosa (also known as St. Rose) was declared a

saint in 2006 by Pope Benedict XVI, who spoke in

his canonization homily of her courageous work or

“the spiritual elevation and authentic emancipation

of the young women of her time.”
