First
Friday Mass and Class
Join
on the First Friday of each month for a Mass and renewal of our
devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Mass is held at 6:30
pm on the First Friday in the parish church.
Directly
after the Mass, we gather in the parish hall for food and drink
and to take in a class by Father John Dolan or another speaker.
The topic for each class is based on the monthly intention of Pope
Benedict XVI.
Come
join us for the following classes:
