Attention Graduates: Please contact Kevin
McNicholas, 535-5494 with Holy Ghost to get signed
up with Newman Connection’s High School Outreach
Program. The Program keeps high school and college
students connected to Catholic campus ministry. The
Campus Minister can then reach out to the student
prior their arrival on campus. This effort has shown
great success. We are keeping students connected to
the Catholic Church using technology & social media.
Census Forms: Holy Ghost and St. Mary’s goal is to
have a census form on each family of the parish. So
far, census response has been good. St. Mary’s has an
80% return, Holy Ghost 65% return. Special attention
is placed on the 8 census forms from families with
kids in our school still out. Not having a form turned
in will result in “non-parishioner” status with the
coming school year. FYI All parish families with
children in our school receive envelopes. Please make
every effort to get a form turned in. This office will be
conducting phone calls and resending forms through
mailing, to achieve a 100% response to the census.
Please call this office if you need a form or need to
make changes. Thank you so much for your
cooperation! 498-3416
