Parish News and Weekly Bulletins and Sacramental Information

Can you believe it is October already and next weekend will be Thanksgiving?  


October is the month of the Rosary and there will be a few events at St. Monica Church to recognize this fact.  Tomorrow morning after the first Saturday of the month Mass, there will be a procession to the statue of Mary at the back of the parking lot.  There will be a ceremony to crown the Blessed Virgin Mary.  All are welcome to attend.  On Monday, there will be all day adoration in the church beginning at 9am and a multi-lingual recitation of the rosary beginning at 6pm.  


Last chance for First Communion registration will be next week.  There will be meetings on Tuesday and Thursday at 7pm at St. Monica.  Please be at one of these meetings to ensure that your child can begin his/her preparations for this very important sacrament.

God Bless,
