A relic of St. Rocco

In November 1977 the Archbishop Msgr. Vittorio Ugo Righi, Apoatolic Nuncio to the Vatican City gave Fr. George Ebejer, a relic of St. Rocco and another one of St. Anthony, both of which are in a special place in the sacristy of our church.

SATURDAY OFFICE HOURS

There will be a bilingual secretary available to help our parishioners from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.  This stems from the fact that most of our parishioners are working during the week; thus unable to come to the rectory.  Also, the Pastor is available all day to handle all parish matters, such as:  special masses, spiritual direction, and Confessions.  Confessions are held at the rectory through an appointment and also on Saturdays at 4:30 p.m.

 

FEAST OF OUR LADY OF MOUNT CARMEL

The feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel will be held on Thursdya, July 16th.  The Solemn mass will begin at 10:30 a.m. with the blessing of the Scapulars of the Virgin of Mont Carmel.  Refreshments will be served after Mass in the church hall.  The statue of the Virgin of Mount Carmel will be exposed to be venerated in the church atrium on Saturday the 11th and Sunday the 12th of July.  If you wish to cooperate towards the feast, please see Jerry Mammolito, Helen Sokoloski, or Mena Zappoli.
