After the procession we will come together in the social hall for a spaghetti dinner hosted by the Knights of Columbus. All are welcome to join us for a beautiful afternoon of prayer, song, procession and fellowship.
Last weekend we were blessed to have a visiting priest from Cross Catholic Outreach. Thank you, Father Mac!
More than ever, the poor in developing countries desperately need food, water, shelter, medical care and spiritual nourishment. To support those ministry efforts, please go to CrossCatholic.org/outreach.
Fr. Farrell E. “Mac” McLaughlin will be visiting our parish next weekend (May 17-18 2025) to speak at all the Masses on behalf of Cross Catholic Outreach, which was founded to forge a stronger and more supportive link between parishes in America and the priests and nuns serving the poor in the Caribbean, Africa, Southeast Asia, and Central and South America.
Father McLaughlin was ordained in 1971 in the Diocese of Providence,
Rhode Island. He spent several years in youth ministry as a teacher, chaplain
and spiritual director. Most of his priesthood was spent in parish work, where
he served as a pastor for 25 years. Fr. Mac has done postgraduate work in
alcohol and substance abuse and recovery. He has given Matt Talbot Retreats
and 11th Step Retreats here in the U.S. and in Prince Edward Island. He
belongs to the National Catholic Council on Addictions, the Guest House
Institute, the Spiritual Advisor of the Diocesan Council of the St. Vincent de
Paul Society and the 4th Degree Knights of Columbus.
