There are many things that happen in the parish that a lot of us may not hear about. There is not enough room in our printed weekly bulletin to adequately cover everything. I would like to use these pages to expand on some of theses things. The events that go on in the parish just don't happen, it takes many dedicated people working together to make them happen. This is your page, you make things happen. If you are involved in a parish event or program and would like to share more specifics with the rest of us, this is the place. Pictures are a good way of sharing and are always welcomed. Want to wish someone a happy birthday or happy anniversary, this may be a different and fun way to do it.

The relic-glove of Saint Padre Pio came to Hancock on March 24, 2006. A Mass was celebrated by Father Stephen Morris and after the Mass the parishioners were invited to meditate while holding the glove, which was protected in a glass frame. They were then blessed with oil from the tomb of Padre Pio. The evening was long, but the experience was well worth the wait.
The Bethany Ministries Volunteer have been very busy. Monday, March 6, 2006 a funeral luncheon was provided for the family of Joseph McArdelle. Thursday, March 9, the luncheon was for the family of Concetta Wolfe. Then on Friday, March 10, 2006 the funeral luncheon was for the family of Joyce Richards. A special thanks to all the people that worked and to those that provided all of the food. The Cabin Fever Ham Dinner was held on Sat. Feb. 25th. The dinner was really delicious and a special thank you goes to everyone that prepared the food, as well as to those that took the time to help serve and clean up afterwards. A big thank you also to the people that donated food and to those that attended the dinner. |
