Parking will be provided either side of the Church entrance for disabled persons. All other parking will be in the School parking lot in front of the lower main entrance and beside the gymnasium, the lower church hall parking lot or on the church side of Nalabila Boulevard. This will require everyone’s consideration and patience for the duration of the project. Thank you for your cooperation.

The parish pastoral council has submitted the following list of parish projects for the SERVE team: (1) the cleaning of the outside and inside church windows in the church and church hall (2) the washing of the rectory siding and outside windows (3) Restoring and reviving the church pews with furniture oil (4) shredding boxes of donation envelopes from prior years (5) Assist with brush clearing around the church and school property.
