Every year on the 4th of July we have the wonderful opportunity
to celebrate our freedom. Let's remember in our prayers and
meditations to be grateful and thankful for all we have.

"May we nurture freedom's call
Protect what we have gained
Give our best and do our best
Where freedom's concerned - not complain.

We owe so many a debt of praise
For opening to us a land
Where people can strive and reap rewards
Working together hand in hand.

With appreciation and honor today
For others having cleared the way
For a land where opportunity calls
Where freedom is a given for all
We give our heartfelt thanks!"

First Friday of the Month

Friday, July 3rd, is the First Friday of the Month, and a special day of prayer for peace in our world, in our homes, and in our individual lives.

The Blessed Sacrament will be exposed in the logetta (the "crying room") of the church from 10:00 A.M. until 12:00 noon, as well as during the hours of Nocturnal Adoration.

Because the weekend will be taken up with celebrations for Independence Day, the Nocturnal Adoration Society has decided to postpone its regular monthly night of adoration until August. We still hope to have the Blessed Sacrament exposed in the logetta on July 4th from 10:00am to 12 Noon, provided there is no funeral taking place.
