Reminder: Youth Group will meet on
Tuesday, May 12th, 19th, 26th from 6:30 to
8:00 p.m. in the Social Hall Youth Room.
Thank you to the people that support and
encourage us. As warmer weather is finally here and school
will soon be out, Youth Group will move to the summer schedule. Starting in June we will have fewer meetings in the Social
Hall because of the heat, but will still be busy doing service
projects and having fun. The braided dog toys that the youth
are making will be delivered to an animal shelter and hopefully
we will be able to help out there for an afternoon. A Car Wash
for Cancer is in the works and an activity at a local nursing
home is in the making. We will also have a cookout, swimming party, and an ice cream meeting to name a few. If you
would like to join us, or have an idea or question, please call
Darla Losteter at 412-953-8119 or the Rectory at 412-6727209.
People will forget what you said, people will forget what you
did, but people will never forget how you make them feel.

*Please remember that even though CCD year is over, school
will soon be on summer break and vacations will be here, to
pray and attend mass regularly. It’s great to get away and relax,
but never take a break from your faith.*
