FIRST FRIDAY
This Friday, June 5th, is the first Friday of the month and we will have Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament in
the church from 8:30 – a.m. to 7:45 p.m. We will conclude with Benediction at 7:45pm. I hope everyone is
able to make some time for prayer before the Blessed Sacrament sometime that day.
CORPUS CHRISTI PROCESSION
In one week we will celebrate Corpus Christi Sunday (June 7th), a celebration
which dates back hundreds of years in the Church. We will have the Eucharistic Procession immediately after the 10:30 am Mass so many people can
take part in it. When Mass concludes we will expose the Blessed Sacrament,
sing some songs in honor of Our Lord, and process outside the front door
and around the parking lot. Along the way there will be four stations outside
where we will stop for some brief prayers and adoration.
We would like to have a family take responsibility for each station (it consists
of a table, a white cloth covering it, flowers, and glass candles). We will for
the intentions of that particular family at that station along with the other
prayers we are doing at each station. If you are interested in being responsible for setting up a particular spot please contact Fr. Kevin. The procession
and Benediction at the end should take approximately 40-45 minutes. It
would be wonderful to have a large group to pray and honor our Lord in this
most extraordinary way that he remains and nourishes us. For those who
want to join us for the procession but are going to a different Mass they
should plan on being here at 11:30. Those who are at the 10:30 that do not
plan on staying for the Procession would be able to leave when Mass has concluded. If the weather is bad we
will do the prayers in the church after Mass and process around the inside of the church like we do on Holy
Thursday. The length of the procession and Benediction should be approximately 30-40 minutes.
EXTRAORDINARY MINISTERS OF HOLY COMMUNION
Next week, June 6th and 7th, Corpus Christi Sunday, we will reinstate all those who are extraordinary ministers of holy communion at all the Masses. If you cannot be here next weekend please let Fr. Kevin know and
he will reinstate you at a separate time.
NEED COVERAGE FOR ADORATION
We are in need of coverage for Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament on Fridays from 8-8:30 pm., Monday
from 6-7 pm and Wednesdays from 4-5p.m. Please let Fr. Kevin or Tracey Desmarais know if you are able
and willing to help.

LOOKING TO CLEAR YOUR HOUSE AND GARAGE OF USED ITEMS?

basement of the Church). You can drop off items for the yard sale in the basement of the Church entering

COMMON CORE CONCERNS PRESENTATION
We are all invited to meet Dr. Peg Luksik, a nationally-regarded champion for parental rights, local and teacher control in education, on Thursday, June 4, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. at the Baptist Temple Church, 700 North
Eastern Ave., Fall River. She will discuss her deep concerns about Common Core, the newly developed federal education system that has serious implications for all our students K-12. Her presentation is especially
helpful for parents who are trying to figure out changes they are observing in what and how their children are
being taught, and parents who are concerned about all the time invested in testing rather than teaching. She
speaks about Common Core as a parent herself, an educator in the fields of special and elementary education, an author, and a deeply-committed advocate.

CATHOLIC CHARITIES
nd
As of May 22 , we have received a total of $19,002 in donations and pledges. Last year, we ended the Appeal with $33,515 in donations. The Appeal ends June 30 at 4pm. Many of the diocesan apostolates are dependent on the Charity Appeal so please bring to your prayer and generous consideration how you may be
able to assist with the Appeal. As we know many are struggling to meet their daily needs so every little bit
helps. Thanks to all those who have already given.
QUO VADIS DAYS
This summer, July 6th – 10th, the Office for Vocations will be hosting their annual Quo Vadis Days Retreat for
boys entering high school to those entering college. The purpose of the Quo Vadis is to bring young men together from around the diocese to spend time in growing in their faith, learning more about discernment of
one’s vocation, learning about the priesthood, and building friendships with other young men who see their
faith as something very important to them. Each day we have Mass, times for prayer, sports, etc. We also
have a day when we go mountain hiking. It is a great experience! If interested please notify Fr. Kevin for the
details.
