Congratulations to Ann Radermacher on her amazing Mosaics! Ann said, "I started my mosaic journey in the Fall. I began watching a British mosaic artist, Caroline Jariwala, on Youtube and decided to try it and fell in love with it. I am having fun learning the art. I started out making stepping stones. I decided to create a large mendala mosaic for my shop wall. That turned out so well that I decided to design more mosaics. My plan is to continue covering the south wall of my shop. I will be busy for a while." Way to use this crazy time to learn something new!

If you have something you would like to celebrate in the parish newsletter, please contact Liz Jackman.

Next week, we will take up the Peter’s Pence Collection, which unites us and Catholics around the world more closely with the Holy Father in two ways: it supports the structures of the Holy See through which the Pope governs the Church as well as his charitable efforts to assist victims of war, oppression, natural disasters, and others most in need. Please be generous. For more information, visit HERE.

New mandatory training is required for all families of registered athletes. Some families took this course this spring, but if you haven't gotten to it please be on the lookout for Parent Like a Champion Workshops being offered. Registration for those workshops will be at the same link you use to register for a sport. For more information on this workshop, you can go here.

What does Cross Country participation look like? We are hoping to host 2 practices a week (tentatively on Mondays and Thursdays after school) at Meadowbrook park starting in early September. Kids who are involved in other athletic pursuits (like soccer) are not required to attend all practices to participate in races. There will be 3-4 racing opportunities. If the season is "virtual" we will plan to host OLL team race days on Sundays where we will race and record times to submit to CYO. Participants also will have the opportunity to run on their own and submit times. If Cross Country moves to a "live" sport, then meets are typically in the early afternoon on Sundays at Lower Woodland Park.

Early Bird sign-up and volunteers: Please consider signing up early so we know how many kids plan on participating. Early Bird registration is available starting now through July 31st. This will help us plan over the summer for a successful season. If your kids are still deciding, there will be an opportunity to sign up during the first week of school at a slightly higher rate. With your sign-up, please let us know if you are interested in coaching, being a parent volunteer at practices, or helping record race times/volunteer at the Sunday meets. We need help from the whole community to make the season a success! Cross Country is a relatively short commitment with the season lasting about 6-7 weeks. No previous experience is required.

We wish to safely welcome those who feel comfortable back into the church for in-person liturgies, Sundays at 10am. With this, there is important information about attending Mass in-person v. viewing via livestream that we encourage you all to read carefully before registering (please find the link here).
