Dear St. Mary Friends,
Please be sure to note the above video, in particular the reflection on God the Father, our human fathers, and our society. Also, take note of two items for special attention.
Change in Location for Confessions - GYM
Because we’ve added Hall Masses, we must move the location for Confessions on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Enter from the Greenfield Avenue entrance, then bear left, driving alongside the main entrance to the gym. Confessions will be held there. Exit to the left onto Barry Avenue.

Assistance for the Dorothy Hospitality House
A young adult parishioner, Lukas Dapkus, was inspired to collect needed items for those who depend on the Dorothy Day House. The collection will be in the St. Mary School front parking lot on Saturday, June 27 from 10:00 A.M. to 12:00 Noon. Lukas created a
flyer
to provide all of the information, including what items are needed Well done, Lukas, and God bless you and those who will be served by this collection.
Father’s Day
St. Paul’s verse (above) continues with even more richness.
A Happy Father’s Day to all fathers, grandfathers, godfathers, et al.
Many blessings to everyone,
Monsignor Royal
Praised be Jesus Christ!
Now and Forever. Amen.
