Knights of Columbus In Need of a Mower

The Knights of Columbus are in need of a lawn mower. They would prefer a riding mower but are

happy to accept a self-propelled mower. If you can help with this need, please contact: Al McGrath at 978-948-7953 Thank you for your kindness!

Counters are Still Needed To Help Us Count the Sunday Collections!

The Finance Council is looking for volunteer adults to count the collection on Sundays. We are hoping for 8 two person teams. Each week the counting team rotates so once we are fully staffed, you would be asked to count about once every 2 months. The counting starts around 10:30 AM and is usually finished by 12:30 PM.

If you are interested in volunteering, please call the Rectory at 978-352-2024. We will need a completed CORI form and approval from the Finance Council & Pastor.
