Quick St. Patrick fundraiser
We are happy to serve the WMT Tractorcade that is coming through Colesburg in the afternoon on Tuesday, June 11. We will need cookies and bars from several people, as there is typically 400 participating in this event.

Liturgical Ministry
Eucharistic Ministers, please check to see how many are needed each week. It's that time of year, that only one form of Eucharist might be offered; it also depends on Deacon Paul's schedule and Father's ability to distribute.
Thank you to all for your ministries.
