NOTICE RECEPTION OF COMMUNION BY HOST ONLY—Due to the se-verity and the very contagious nature of this year’s flu epidemic, we will be distribut-ing Holy Communion by bread only, until the danger of spreading the flu passes.

Blood, Soul and Divinity) in either the host or the cup.

and their leaders will be attending the Mass.

PARISH DIRECTORIES—They have arrived! If you haven’t received your direc-tory, please stop by the parish office Monday through Friday 9-5 at your earliest con-venience to pick up your directory. Many thanks to all the individuals who worked

so hard to make this happen. It is very much appreciated.

A BIG THANK YOU—to all those who attended the CRS Rice Bowl Soup Supper on Wednesday, February 14th. Your free will offering for the CRS Rice Bowl is very much appreciated. The amount donated was $301.00. Our neighbors in Iraq, Nica-ragua, Burkina Faso, Haiti, Malawi and the less fortunate folks of the US will benefit from your generosity. Lent is the favorable season for renewing our encounter with Christ, living in his word, in the sacraments and in our neighbor. – Pope Francis. Also, a huge thank you goes out to Beck Thobe for making the soups and to her won-derful volunteers who came out to help serve the supper. You all did a fabulous job!!

God Bless!
