Sunday Movie Fundraiser
To kick off Jackson Rainey’s Trail Life project, (Renovating the Library room) he is organizing a Sunday Movie Fund-raiser and information session. The movie, The 13th Day, will be shown on April 10th after both the 8AM & 10AM Masses in the Knights of Columbus classroom. The 13th Day is the story of the three children in Fatima, Portugal who were cho-sen by God to offer a message world in 1917. Admission is free, but donations to the project will be greatly appreciated. Pretzel sandwiches will also be sold in the so-cial hall following 10:00 Mass as a lunch option or for any-
one who would like to purchase them. Orders for the sandwiches will be taken following the Masses on Sunday April 3rd.

Parish Registration Forms
If you are not a registered member of Mater Dei and would like to become one, registration forms are located in the church entrance, or on our website. Being registered makes one a more full recipient of the graces of the Masses (such as the “Pro Populo” Mass which is offered for the community members each Sunday) and prayers offered by the priests every day. Also remember that the chaplain and assistant chaplain have the grace of state to guide in particular those who are their parishioners.
Parking - Weekends and Evenings
We have been given permission to park behind the office buildings located across the street from St. Lawrence on eve-nings and weekends. The entrance to these parking spaces is by way of Academy Alley, which is located directly behind these houses, and is the first alley after passing State Street. Please report any incident that might cause the owners con-cern, as we do not want to jeopardize the parking hospitality given to us from these generous property owners. Note: The parking lot along the side of St. Lawrence (across from the side entrance) is not to be used.
