Sixth Sunday of Easter
"Oh God, let all the nations praise you."
Notes from your parish staff

Dear Parishioners,

After discussion with Father Joe, we have decided it is time to give official names to two spaces here on our campus- the "A/B" meeting rooms and the Counseling Room. These were titles previously assigned by the construction company in 2006. We feel that they are deserving of more official labels.

Today, we're announcing a contest to collect ideas for what these rooms should be called. All parishioners are invited to submit entries by Friday, July 1. Entries may be emailed to parish@holyspiritmo.org. The person who submits the winning entry for each of the two spaces will receive a Scrip gift card of their choice!

Also, we would like to request your assistance with Pentecost masses (June 4th and 5th). As we have done in the past, we will have parishioners carry candles and banners for our parish namesake liturgies that weekend. If you would like to carry a candle or banner, please click here to sign up.

We have a daily mass schedule change to announce: on Tuesdays, beginning June 7, Father Joe will hear confessions from 5:00-5:30 PM. There will then be mass at 5:30. Following mass, we will offer devotions to Our Lady of Perpetual Help. We hope this change will allow more folks to attend a daily mass. Please note, there will NOT be an 8:00 AM mass on Tuesdays.

Sincerely,
Your parish staff
