September 10, 2017 Twenty-Third Sunday in Ordinary Time Views From The Pews 2 Did You Know? Anne writes, “I came to our late Mass. I was sure disappointed. There was hardly any stuff at all for Houston. Have we forgotten what those good people did for us? Get off your duffs, people!!!!!! We need to help. It is the right thing to do don’t you think.” “We are still collecting: money, non-perishable food items, cleaning supplies, water, baby supplies. No clothing, toys, books or furniture.” Everything will go to St. Ignatius of Loyola Parish in suburban Houston. St. Ignatius was underwater.” “VOL is dedicating the profit from this weekends’ BBQ Cookoff to flood ravaged St. Ignatius of Loyola Parish in suburban Houston.” Father Mike Father Mike VOL COOKBOOK VOLUME II COMING SOON!
