Forty Hours
On Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday, October 16, 17 & 18, Saint Mary Parish will celebrate its Annual Forty Hours Eucharistic Devotion at 7pm in the church. We have asked all families to attend at least one evening of Forty Hours.
Students preparing for the Sacraments (grades 2nd and 7th) are required to attend the closing ceremony on Tuesday as part of their retreat. Students not preparing for a Sacrament (grades 1, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8) are strongly encouraged to attend either Sunday or Monday evening with their parents. We hope they will attend all 3 evenings!
There will be index cards in the back of church, if you would be so kind as to remind students/families this week during class of the following:
• Parents with student's in grades 2nd and 7th are asked to write their child(ren's) name, grade and teacher on the index card
• Students attending Sunday or Monday evening, are to place their attendance cards in one of the boxes at the church entrance ways
• Students attending on Tuesday evening, are to place their attendance cards in the collection basket during the evening service
