St. Mary’s paper goods drive for the Harrison County Seniors Resources Agency was a big success. Ms. Eunice Hollingsworth, Administrator, thanked us for contributing these much-needed items for their emergency pantry. Acute needs are discovered when a social worker visits the residence of those applying for Meals on Wheels. Some applicants lack the basic necessities of sanitation, including toiletries and cleaning material. The Knights will lead another drive in February 2020. L to R: Nellie and John Cruso, Valerie Hill, Eunice Hollingsworth, Chuck Gautreaux

Thank you to the Confirmation Candidates! They have been earning their service hours the past few weeks by taking care of some much-needed tasks around the church, such as making sure the pews in the church and the chapel are clean and presentable for when you arrive for Mass! Thank you again, teens, for all your hard work and dedication to your parish community!

Happy Birthday

Please join us the first
