This month we are introducing a new and exciting way for you to support our parish offertory:  Faith Direct.  Faith Direct enables you to make your parish contributions through either direct debit to your checking account or through your Visa, Master Card, American Express, or Discover credit cards.  No more writing checks or searching for envelopes on the way out the door. Now you can apply the convenience of direct debit to your parish offerings in much the same way as you may now use it to make your mortgage, car, or tuition payments.

Parishioner John Feehery recently penned a post about the real sense of community and the friendships formed in our Parish in the sharing and practice of our Faith.  Click here to read the post titled, "My Catholic Church."

Please find, linked here, a wonderful article on the renovation/restoration of the church and rectory. Our parish neighbor, Peter J. Waldron, spoke to Father Byrne, Bill Phillips, and Don Hemmer about the the work including a spectacular photo of the buildings wrapped in their scaffolding.

Father Carter Griffin, Director of Priest Vocations for the Archdiocese of Washington, invites young men to ask God the question that is seldom uttered in our busy world, “Lord how are you calling me to follow You?” Come. See. Pray. Discern.
