Church Library
Contact: Linda Loerwald
As of June, 2010, our church library has almost 1800 titles sorted into 60 categories ranging from Bible studies, church ministries, and saints, to cookbooks, money matters, and teen fiction. It continues to grow each month as more materials (books, videos, tapes, etc.) are donated by our parishioners.
It is an Honor Library, open at all times. When checking out materials, sign the CHECK OUT BOOK. Please return your selections in 3-4 weeks. If you would like to donate items, please be sure they are suitable for a church library. Leave your donations on the work table or in the Book Return box.

A Can a Week!
Family Catholic Services' food pantry has empty shelves due to fewer contributions and increased needs during the summer months. Please help restock their shelves and keep them stocked every week of the year. Holy Spirit could make a big difference if every family would commit to at least one non-perishable food item every week. Make it a family habit to bring an item each time you come to mass.
Donations may be placed in the large basket in the foyer of McGivney Hall. There is also a locked box for monetary donations which are also greatly appreciated and used to buy needed items.
Items needed include canned meats, fruits and vegetables, soup, pinto beans, rice, macaroni and cheese, tuna, shortenings, breakfast cereal, corn meal, flour, powdered or canned milk, shampoo, deodorant, toothpaste and toothbrushes, toilet tissue, detergent, dishwashing soap, baby diapers, and disposable razors.
Help fill the empty shelves and keep them well stocked. Thank you!
