If the sight of the blue skies fills you with<br />
joy,<br />
If a blade of grass springing up in the<br />
fields has power to move you,<br />

message that you understand, rejoice,<br />
for your soul is alive.

Very Sincere Thanks:<br />
Last weekend we celebrated both the<br />
Feast of Pentecost and Memorial Day,<br />
both days were especially beautiful and<br />
solemn because of the effort of several<br />
of our parishioners. Very special thanks<br />
are extended to Chris Bogner and Diane<br />
Molesevich for decorating SS. Peter &<br />
Paul Church with the traditional greens<br />
for Pentecost. They did a great job! Very<br />
special thanks are also extended to our<br />
cemetery care-taker, Jay McAndrew for<br />
all the work he does throughout the<br />
spring and summer to make our<br />
'cemetery at SS. Peter & Paul so<br />
beautiful. Great job Jay! We also extend<br />
our thanks to Jim Gownley who does a<br />
fantastic job taking care of Assumption<br />
cemetery. A very special thank you to<br />
Joe Liptock for decorating Assumption<br />
B.V.M. Church with the traditional<br />
greens for Pentecost. Great job to Jim<br />
and Joe as well! Many parishioners and<br />
visitors to the cemeteries commented on<br />
how well-maintained they are. Finally, a<br />
special thank you to our cantor Ed Cuff,<br />
and our altar servers, Bryce Fiamoncini<br />
and Tiffany Yuskoski for all their<br />
assistance during the services both in<br />
church and the cemeteries. God bless<br />
you and thank you!<br />
Safe Summer: May God grant<br />
everyone a happy, healthy, and safe<br />
summer.
