Sincere GratitudeI would like to offer sincere gratitude to all of those who helped in any way in providing food for family relatives and friends after Mary Dyre’s funeral. I was very proud of our ladies, and many expressed their appreciation for such a fine and plentiful luncheon.  MR 

 

Happy 4th We wish everybody a happy, peaceful and safe 4th of July. We pray especially for those traveling on the highways and by plane for a safe journey visiting friends and family and a safe return home. 

 

Hospital VisitationPlease call us at the rectory if you or

a member of your family is in the hospital in Grenada or

elsewhere. Hospitals have a privacy policy that doesn’t make

known the people in the hospital. I would like to visit people

while in the hospital if at all possible to pray with them and to

give them a little encouragement.

 

Year Of The PriestsBenedict the XVI has declared June

19th 2009 – June 19th 2010 as the year for priests, as we are all

aware of the fact that there is a growing scarcity of priests.

Parishioners are encouraged to pray for priests and vocations

during the coming year both at home and at church.  

 

Rite Of Christian Initiation Of AdultsThe R.C.I.A.

will resume in the fall. If you know of anyone interested in the

R.C.I.A., or for more information, please call the

Rectory at 662-226-2490.   

 

RememberUnless we are happy with who we are we will

never be happy with what we have… St. Frances

 

PLEASE... When using any of the buildings, please make sure

that the door locks behind you when you leave. Push, pull, turn

knobs…just check to see if it is locked. Thanks!!

 

Choose Life Life, the first right: “We hold these truths to

be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are

endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that

among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
