6th Sunday in Ordinary Time

Greetings:

Your bulletin: https://saintspeterpaulpalmyra.org/february-16th-2025/

Here are the highlights for the upcoming week and beyond:

  • With all the snow this winter, we need helpers to plow and shovel our parking lot. If you can help, please contact the Office.
  • Our Lady of Lourdes, World Day of the Sick Mass/with Anointing of the Sick, has been rescheduled to Tuesday, February 18th at Noon.
  • If you currently give on line through Faith Direct, you will start receiving emails inviting you to switch to the new giving platform from Give Central. Please remember to end your giving with Faith Direct as soon as you get set up.
  • Our flower guild is now 5 strong but we need to expand to a minimum of 6 members; this allows for members to take time away and no one will have to serve more than once a month. This team will rotate on a weekly basis and concentrate their efforts on arranging flowers each week in the church. The time commitment is about an hour a week for one person, in most cases. Please contact the office at 434.589.5201.
  • What do Good Shepherds, Ushers and the Altar Servers ministries all have in common? They all need help. If you want to learn more and think you can help, please call the office (434.589.5201) for more info.
  • Lenten Lunches will be offered on Fridays, after Stations of the Cross at noon, beginning March 7th in the Commons. Please sign up to bring soup or sandwiches during this event.
  • Get ready for Fish Frys on Fridays during Lent.
  • Senior Coffee Social rescheduled its special meeting to Wednesday, March 12th in the Commons. Bob Maher and Jamie Hicks will share their experience of their work in Uganda. All are welcomed to attend.

  • If you have old palms, you may return them to the basket in the front hall.
  • If you have misplaced any items in the church, come see Colleen in the office; it is where many lost things go.
  • If you have recently changed your email address or phone number or signed up for Faith Direct and no longer need envelopes, please send a note to the office so we can update the system and make sure you don’t miss out on any information we have to share with you.
