A blessed June to you!
Thanks to all who came out for OLGC's first All Volunteer Appreciation Mass and Reception last Friday. We are so grateful to those who volunteer their time at OLGC and beyond to serve those in need.
There's still room to join us for our next St Al's Grill Club on Saturday June 21st, coincidentally, the feast day of St Aloysius! On a bittersweet note, it will be our last time serving with Fr. Mario Amore as he moves on from his role at St Al's to a new role at the Archdiocese starting July 1st.
See below for some summertime service opportunities from all across our area and beyond!
In Christ,

SUMMER TIME FOOD DONATIONS: Did you know that our local food pantries and our friends at PBJ experience a significant decrease of food donations over the summer? While this is expected as folks go "up north," this means many of our local needy families suffer the consequences. We kindly ask, if you are able, to please stock up our Baskets of Hope and the wooden chest with as much as you are able to give while you're still in town. As always, I thank you for your generosity!
“As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace.”
