Parish News and Events
Votive Candle Price Increase
INFLATION AND VOTIVE CANDLES
We have not yet received the new prices of church goods and candles from our supplier. The supplier tells us that all church goods and candles have increased in price 33% over these last few months, since the beginning of the year. Pray that price stability returns to the economy, our markets, our suppliers, and the shipping companies. Due to the inflation spiral we are currently experiencing in our economy, when the cost increase is realized on our end, candles will be adjusted in price, accordingly.
Votive Candles: $5:00
Bible Study
This week we will continue in our study of the book of Joshua, chapter 14. We will learn about the apportionment of the Land of Israel after the 7-year conquest which began at Jericho, the status of the Levites, and some very interesting facts about Caleb and his loyalty to God.
Scouting For Food
A food drive for the needy is taking place during the month of May. It is being directed by the local chapter of the Boy Scouts of our Parish. Food items for collection include dry, boxed, bagged, canned, and all nonperishable goods. Thank you for your generosity.
