The Year of St. Joseph
Archbishop Lori encourages Catholics to make a pilgrimage to one or more of the nine churches in our archdiocese named in honor of St. Joseph. An indulgence for the Year of St. Joseph will be offered for visits to the churches named for the saint. Please visit archbalt.org/year-of-st-joseph/ for more details and resources to help celebrate the Year of St. Joseph.
On Saturday, March 20th, Brother Patrick and Fr. Canisius will meet with all the children and their parents who are enrolled in the parish's Religious Education Program at 8:00am in the church to discuss the online video sessions and the Family Life curriculum requirements. This is a very important opportunity to connect names with faces and get to know one another in our learning community.
Easter Flower Memorials
Easter flower memorial envelopes are included in the March offering envelope packet and can also be found in the church vestibule. Please return yours to the parish office by Wednesday, 3/24. You may also make a flower memorial donation via online giving—just select fund “13. Easter Flowers” on the giving form and enter the name(s) of your loved one(s) in the space provided: https://giving.parishsoft.com/app/giving/stc101164
Thank you to all those who have made their pledge to the Annual Appeal for Catholic Ministries. As of March 9th, 37 families (6% of our families) have participated.
