July
World War II Veterans Honored
The weekend of June 30/July 1, we will honor our World War II Veterans, Mr. Roy Foeller Sr. (US Army) and Mr. Richard (Dick) Voss (US Navy) at the 5pm Saturday Mass, and at the 11am Mass Mr. Norman Becherer (US Army), as the country celebrates its 242nd year of freedom. Please join in celebrating their contributions that have ensured we have remained a free people.
I will be on vacation during the coming week to visit some friends of mine and getaway for a few days. There will be no Masses during the week of July 2-5 at either parish . Please welcome Father Robert Lampit who serves at the Newman Center at the University of Illinois - Champaign. I will return Saturday night and celebrate the Sunday Masses. Have a Happy 4 th of July!
