This Week's Bulletin

2026-08-16

Pastor's Note

Fr. Byrd reflects on St. Hyacinth's example of zealous faith and discipleship, urging parishioners to choose the harder path of following Christ over comfort and ease. He emphasizes that while Christian life is challenging, it leads to heaven and eternal reward, and calls the faithful to surrender their hearts to Jesus daily without counting the cost.

Announcements

Second collection today for the Diocese of Same, Tanzania, as the visiting missionary priest could not attend.

Starting Aug. 19, Wednesday daily Mass moves to noon (from 7:20 a.m.) and will be followed by Adoration ending with Parish Holy Hour at 5:30 p.m. and Vespers with Benediction at 6:15 p.m. This replaces Tuesday's Parish Holy Hour and Friday's daytime Adoration.

Only 55 of 150 baby bottles distributed for the Bottles for Life fundraising campaign have been returned. Please return bottles as soon as possible using the white basket under the last pew on the St. Joseph side.

Congratulations to Roman and Angelina (La Rosa) Slowinski on their recent marriage at Holy Rosary.
