The Ladies Guild would like to thank all the parishioners who stepped up to help them achieve a wonderful, successful luncheon last Saturday. We received great reviews on our endeavor. The Guild is in the pro-cess of purchasing two heart defibrillators, one for the Church and one for the parish hall from the proceeds. A special thank you to all the Ladies Guild members, the Knights of Columbus and all parishioners that contributed food, time and energy to make this a GREAT success. The $100. raffle winner was Shicole Goffington.

Please remember that all proceeds from Ladies Guild functions go toward helping the parish in any way we can.
