Major Award Raffle Tickets:
CONGRATULATIONS to Mary Jo Westendorf who won the second Early Bird drawing on Father's Day.  Please remember to turn in your sold tickets.  The Major Award Raffle is the largest source of income for the festival.  Its success is vital.  Please buy/sell as many tickets as you can.  Please see the bulletin inserts for important information regarding the festival.

Chicken Dinner:  Make plans to attend our festival.  We are having a chicken dinner on Saturday and Sunday from 4pm - 7pm.  The cost is $6 and includes two pieces of chicken, green beans, mashed potatoes and a roll.

Peter Pence Collection  Today, Sunday, June 28th.  The Peter’s Pence Collection derives its name from ancient custom.  In ninth-century England, King Alfred the Great collected money – “pence” or pennies – from landowners as financial support for the Pope.  Today, the Peter’s Pence Collection supports the Pope’s charitable work by giving the Holy Father the means to provide essential assistance.              

Paint and Pane Fund:  Totals, so far: paint - $48,739.71 windows - $53,511.56, grand total-$102,251.27.  Goals: paint-$51,000 windows-$151,000, total $202,000.  We’re gettin’ there!  We started to install some windows.  After Mass, you can go down the pony track to the school and view the new windows on the first floor in the main building.

A Tisket a Tasket, the Festival needs your Basket! The 5th annual Basket Bonanza Booth is accepting donations of theme baskets, or items, which may be put together to make a theme basket for the summer festival.  This booth has been very successful in the past and with your help we hope to carry on that tradition.  If you would like to donate any items, gift certificates or monetary gifts, please bring them to the Rectory or call Enid Sunderman at 921-6102. Thank you for your generosity!
