If you or someone you know have palm trees that can be trimmed to provide palms for us, we welcome donations of clean green palms. Because of the scale problem palms experienced last year, we may need palms this year from those of you that have not given in previous years. Please place them in plastic bags and leave them at the door of the church after April 5th. Please do not leave palms any earlier than April 5th, as we do not have a place to keep them. Rev. Francis Nguyen Parochial Vicar James Rooney Jim Venturella Deacons Ms. Tiffany Durgin Office Manager Mrs. Christie Bourg Director of Ministries Mrs. Kelli Bourgeois Parish Secretary
