PARKING ISSUES
Father Chris and the Parish Council are aware of the
parking issues in regards to
the handicapped designated spaces
and the blocking of those spaces
during the period when religious education classes
are being dismissed and those arriving
for the 10:45 am Mass.
Please rest assured that we are addressing the issues
and investigating the possibility of hiring
an off-duty police officer to direct the traffic
during that period of time.
More information will follow as it becomes available.
If you are interested in joining a group discussion on Pope
Francis’ encyclical Fratelli Tutti, we will be meeting
Friday mornings from 9:00am—10:30am, Oct. 1st
and running 8 weeks through Nov. 19th.
We will be using the OSV publication, which contains
discussion questions for each chapter.
You can order a copy from Amazon or at
www.osv.com.
Please call Susan O’Connor at 931-537-6786 for further information.
