Memorial Day
Monday, May 28, 2012
Mass Celebrated at Old St. Mary ~ 8:00am

This past Lenten season, in our four parishes, we supported an alms project that reached out to our veterans at Dryhootch on Brady Street. Through that partnership, it was discovered that we needed to reach out even further to enlisted persons and their families, to care for the spiritual welfare of veterans, and to bring us all together in the Eucharist. Our Lenten alms and outreach did not stop on Easter Sunday.

As a community who professes our belief in Christ’s resurrection, the communion of saints, and in life everlasting, we always pray for the dead each time we gather for Eucharist. On Memorial Day we do the same, recalling our fallen heroes. As a grateful nation, we remember the sacrifices made to grant us the freedoms we now enjoy.

On Memorial Day,  the Eucharist will be celebrated and the sacrifice of the Mass will be offered for the sacrifice made by our fallen soldiers. Join us as we pray together, as grateful citizens, remembering their sacrifice.
Mass is at 8:00 am at Old St. Mary Church ~ 844 N. Broadway ~ See you at Mass!
