23rd Sunday in Ordinary Time

Dear Parishioners,

The Holy Spirit draws us here today to worship our Lord—to listen to God’s word, and to celebrate the Eucharist. On this Labor Day weekend, as we recognize the blessings of human labor and of all those who work, whether paid or unpaid, we are also inspired to take part in the Lord’s work. May our celebration of the Eucharist strengthen us as we labor in the vineyard—helping to bring Christ’s saving message to a hungry world.

The second collection this weekend is for the Building Maintenance Fund. I ask for your continued support of this collection.

St. Peter School’s first Mass for the new year will be on Wednesday, September 7th at 8:15 A.M. Parishioners are invited to attend the school Masses. They are usually on Wednesday mornings at 8:15 A.M., unless for special circumstances.

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament will be on Wednesday, September 7th. Adoration begins at 1:00 P.M. and concludes with Benediction at 6:00 P.M.

On Wednesday, September 14th, the Sacrament of Reconciliation (Confession) will be celebrated in every church parish of the Archdiocese from 5:00 P.M.-6:30 P.M.

Have a Blessed Week!
