LAY EUCHARISTIC MINISTERS NEEDED: Since resuming in person services after COVID shutdowns, Bob Butterfield and Harry Gore have been our only two trained eucharistic ministers. Although they have done a magnificent job covering EVERY SINGLE SUNDAY, help is needed! Please consider this calling and/or spread the word. Let’s help take the pressure off Harry & Bob. See Father Greg for more information.

Items they take are anything Catholic such as Statues, Rosaries (Broken rosaries OK), Crucifixes, Holy Medals, Holy Cards, Framed Pictures, Prayer Books and Bibles as well as used instruments.
Items they do not take- Religious Books, Pamphlets, Wax Candles, Angel Figurines (Saint Angels are fine). Please bring your items in no later than Sunday June 18th.

2023 FEED MY LAMBS IS COMING AGAIN: It is time for us to organize our Feed My Lambs summer lunch delivery program. We are part of a group of churches in O’Fallon that delivery lunches to children everyday during the summer. Most of these children are in the school lunch program but we provide lunches to all those that come to our stops.
Feed My Lambs is coming on June 5th and we will once again be delivering lunches every Monday morning until August 7th. It is a small route, but we want everyone to be involved. On Sunday mornings during coffee hour we will prepare the bags for the lunches – we invite the Sunday School Class to join us. On Monday morning, any volunteers for sandwich making will meet at the church from 10:00-10:15 to 11:00 am. We also will need two people each week to drive to the 3-4 stops on our route between 11:30 – 12:15 am. We hope you will all take part by signing up on the FML Sign up on the table in the Narthex. Any questions: call Ann Wilt 618-977-1187.

If you need one for a friend or family member, please get one and record it in the book. Sonja Wartonick or June Dublar will assist you.
O’FALLON FOOD PANTRY: This month we will be focusing on collecting canned chili, beef stew, ravioli, as well as toiletries to donate to the pantry.
