MATTHEW 25 MINISTRY……. welcomes current members and interested persons to attend a June 18th meeting at 8:30am. We are now able to visit our beloved elderly. For the past year, this ministry has not been able to visit parishioners who reside in long term care. We are in the process of re-activating our involvement, visiting, participating in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and offering supportive activities to those who no longer live in their own homes. This is truly a Christian work, following Christ who so often reached out and touched the souls of persons who are lonely, and often without emotional support. If you have questions and are interested you may contact the ministry leader, Deacon Greg Cross at 315-427-4622. PLAN TO ATTEND THE MEETING AND LIVE YOUR BAPTISMAL PROMISES.

EMBERS (Adult Faith Planning Group) would like to prepare a short video showing the artistic and historical elements of our beautiful Church. To do so, we are recruiting a disciple to help with this project. The leader, Gregg Brock, estimates this will take about 4-5 hours. The disciple should have some skill in either videotaping (using a phone) or photographing. For example, the project would focus on our beautiful stained-glass windows etc. The finished project would be on the web to introduce our Church to the community and persons inquiring about our Church. If you are called to assist, please contact: Gregg Brock, gregg.a.brock@gmail.com or Tele: 843-475-5098.
