Anointing of the Sick Mass and Soup Supper:
It was a wonderful evening for our parish coming
together to celebrate with the many who came to
attend the Anointing of the Sick Bilingual Mass.
There was a variety of soup for everyone to enjoy
after the Mass. So many attended that additional
seating was needed. Our Lady of Lourdes says thank
you to the many volunteers who helped make this
a beautiful experience of worship and
fellowship. And a special thank you
for all who shared their culinary
talents with some very delicious soup.
Our Lady of Lourdes is truly a blessed parish.

present the Ministry Minute next weekend at all
