With the Summer Youth Camps happening, there may be some days in June that they won't meet!


BABY BOTTLE BOOMERANG FUNDRAISER

It's time to bring back your baby bottles so that we can "boomerang" them back to the Pregnancy Help Center in Lake Jackson! Even if you did not get the chance to fill your bottle up completely, or with any donations at all, please return these baby bottles to the back of either church THIS WEEKEND, or bring them by the Parish Office. These are not for you to keep, and do cost the Pregnancy help Center $2/bottle that is not returned. Thank you very much to those who participated in this event, in support of the Pregnancy Help Center and all that they do! If you still would like to donate, Online Giving is available here! (Please make all checks payable to The Pregnancy Help Center)


HOME VISITS/NEED COMMUNION?

The Legion of Mary members take Communion and do home visits, visiting those who are sick or homebound and cannot make it to Mass! If you're interested yourself or know of a family member or loved one who would be, please contact Linda Miska at 979-236-3978. These ladies go out on Wednesdays from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm.


POTENTIAL SCAMS

Please be aware of any SCAMS that may come as an email, text message, or phone call trying to impersonate Father Preston to solicit donations. He will never contact you personally asking for money or if you have time to chat!
