22nd Sunday in Ordinary Time

August 30, 2026

 

 

FAITH & CHARITY APPEAL UPDATE - More good news! Current pledges now total $21,186, which is 69% of our goal. We can do this! Continued gratitude and prayers go out for all who are supporting their parish and local charities. Please continue your efforts!

 

 

VOLUNTEER SECRETARIAL HELP NEEDED FOR PARISH OFFICE - As of this writing, we have no secretarial assistance in the parish office, so while it is not officially closed, it is unstaffed and out of action for all intents and purposes. A few people have expressed an interest, but nothing is definite yet.  We are seeking someone to volunteer for two mornings or two afternoons per week - at your convenience - to generate documents, return non-emergency calls, enter weekly contributions, issue contribution statements at tax time, and mail correspondence. Or two people, each volunteering for one afternoon or morning, would also work. Compensation for miles driven while commuting is available. Without this help, the parish office may have to close. The Mass schedule and the providing of the sacraments and religious education would continue, but some other services could become unavailable. Don't let this happen. It's up to you!

 

 

CHICKEN BBQ - The Juliennas, assisted by the Knights of Columbus, will hold a Chicken BBQ and Raffle on Saturday, September 19th from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm at Holy Name of Jesus. Tickets will be on sale after each Mass. Tickets may also be purchased by calling Debbie Woollen at 410-456-4561. The menu offers a half chicken, coleslaw, green beans, cornbread and drink for only $15 per dinner. If you like a good down-home meal, this is for you! Invite friends and neighbors!

 

 

RETROUVAILLE:  REDISCOVER THE LOVE IN YOUR MARRIAGE- Tens of thousands of couples have healed their marriages through Retrouvaille (pronounced Retro-vy).  If you know anyone who could benefit from this program, please pass this on.  Couples learn to build communication skills and to increase intimacy.  It provides help for marriage problems, difficulties or crises.  The next program begins the weekend of October 2 - 4, 2026 at the Family Life Center in Malvern, PA.  For more information, or to register, call 215-766-3944 or visit www.MarriageHelpDelVal.org.  All inquiries are strictly confidential.
