NEWS & UPDATES

May Crowning & Flower Offering



All are invited to attend the 5:30 pm Mass on Saturday, May 11. This will be our First Communion Mass for our youth receiving this sacrament. A May Crowning will also take place during the Mass. Please join us in congratulating our parish families whose children are celebrating First Holy Communion! Everyone is encouraged to bring flower offerings for our Blessed Mother Mary.

Next Weekend is St. Vincent de Paul Pantry Weekend


Our St. Luke St. Vincent de Paul conference is most appreciative of you for helping us keep our pantry shelves well stocked and our pantry recipients well fed…thank you for your generosity! Our next Pantry Weekend is next weekend, May 18 & 19.  


We had a lot of pantry guests last month, so we need many items to restock our shelves, especially canned meats (chicken, beef stew, Sloppy Joes, etc.), canned fruit, and cereals. Currently, we do NOT need canned vegetables or mac ‘n cheese. Shopping carts will be at the church exists after all the Masses next weekend. Thank you for your support!



The Pantry continues to provide food, by appointment, to anyone who needs food. If you know of anyone in the parish or the community in need of food, please have them call (626) 684-2914.

Crib Project Supports Mothers and Infants in Need


Our Crib Project in support of mothers and infants that are being helped by the Pregnancy Help Center of San Gabriel Valley has begun. A crib will be set up in the Vestibule through June 2 with slips of paper attached that list needed items. Gift(s) can be placed in the crib. 


The Center is also in need of monetary support. There are also pledge/donation envelopes at the crib if you are able to make a pledge or donation. You can also make a direct donation online at the Pregnancy Help Center’s website, https://pregnancyhelpsgv.com/; go to the Give Now button.



Thank you for your support and generosity! If you have any questions, please contact Judy McCarthy at (626) 422-8436 or jmccarthy4679@att.net.
