CHANGE OF DATES Monday, May 11th & Tuesday, May 12th At this Yard Sale/Flea Market, we will be selling lots of things left over from previous Flea Markets, items given to our parish to sell, items left over from Christmas Bazaars, items left behind from priests who have lived at OLP, personal items that Father Feeney is getting rid of, especially lots of Christmas and Easter Decorations. These items will be sold in the area in front of Church. We will not be renting tables; we are just trying to clean out a whole lot of junk and “treasures” that are cluttering up the rectory, school, church basement, rectory basement, convent basement and other nooks and crannies at OLP. We are having this sale during the week because we have many upcoming weddings on the weekends in May & June. No bride or groom wants a Flea Market in front of Church on their Wedding Day. Once, Memorial Day arrives lots of our parishioners head to the shore for the summer so we want to get rid of things before the summer. One person’s junk is another person’s treasure and boy do we have Junk & treasures for you.
