Dear Parishioners,
We had a beautiful inauguration of the John Sullivan Room last week, before the monthly Mass. It is a fine space for small groups to meet, so if you know of local organisations that need a meeting space, let them know.
Blessings for the Holy TrinitySunday and I hope you have a beautiful week!
