Fr. William Smith Installation as Pastor

Fr. William Smith was formally installed as Pastor on October 22 by Auxiliary Bishop James Massa in a joyous Mass, followed by a reception at the school building. One new young parishioner was also blessed by the Bishop and baptised afterwards in a private ceremony.

We are not accepting bags of donations. Instead, we are asking parishioners, friends, relatives, and neighbors to purchase items or buy a table which costs $25 to sell your wares.
