St. Patrick Announcements

THIS WEEKEND, PALM SUNDAY:

Please meet in the Parish Center BEFORE Mass to process in to church. If you have red in your closet, you are encouraged to wear it.

Red is symbolic of passion and blood. It is worn during the feasts of the martyrs, Good Friday, Palm Sunday, and the Pentecost. The Cardinals wear red as a symbol for their devotion to the church and the Pope. It is to show their blood, which they would shed for Christ and the church

Thank you to all that helped and supported with the Fish Fry. We served:

366 Carry outs

484 Dine-in

35 kid meals

30 buckets

915 TOTAL
