                                                                                                                                                    The Respect Life Committee will be selling tickets after all Masses the weekends of January 8th & 15th to fill five buses leaving from our Parish or the Parish Office.

                                                                                                                                                    If you cannot attend, but want to support the Walk, scholarship or donations for those who cannot afford the bus will be greatly appreciated.

                                                                                                                                                    Mass Times are as follows:
