Broken Cement and Brick Pavers in Front of the Church & PLEC
Please do not drive up to the building onto the cement, brick pavers, or grass around the front, sides, and courtyard of the Church or PLEC buildings.
These areas aren’t constructed to withstand the weight of a vehicle and some areas have water pipes running under them. The repairs to these areas with pipes have already been costly due to vehicles driving up to the buildings.
The ramps were installed for handicap accessibility, to assist funerals and deliveries via hand truck.
If you require assistance with picking up or dropping items off, please park at the curb and come to the office. We are happy to help.
Thank you for your assistance.

Children’s Liturgy of the Word
Children’s Liturgy of the Word is being offered at the 9:30 AM Sunday Mass. We have need for a few more helpers. As we enter the summer months we have lost a few catechists due to new births in their families.
All materials are provided for the catechist. The only requirement is to love Jesus and to teach children to love Jesus. Our two classes are Kindergarten and first grade, and the second class is second and third grade. There are two catechists for each class. Children are dismissed after the opening prayer and return to their families at the offertory to participate in the second part of the mass. If you would like to help our young people learn more about Jesus, we could use your help. For more information and to sign up please call or e-mail Deacon Wally Haarsgaard at 336-884-5352 or [email protected]

We Are Still Collecting Sneakers
Military/Veterans/Families Outreach supports a FIRST Robotics team connected with our National Guard families. 
Funded by donations and grants, one of their fundraisers pays them for recycling sneakers! The better the pair’s condition, the more money they are worth. We’ll accept any size sneakers (adults and children's). Great condition sneakers get resold, the less than perfect are cut up and recycled for materials, saving our landfills. 
Please leave your Sneakers Only donation in the Stewardship Office. Thank you!!


Please Pray for Our Military
Please pray for the men and women in the military who are away from their loved ones as they serve our nation. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they preform on our behalf.
