Dedication of the Parish Library
Thank You…Thank You…Thank You!!!
Thank you for your generous donations.Over 800 books, six bookshelves, a desk and a computer.
Thank you for your time and energy. Volunteers have painted the room and many others are helping as we cover and catalogue the books.
Thank you to Fr. McElroy and the Parish staff. A new door has been installed so that access to the library will be through the side vestibule (and not the main church).
Would you like to help? Here are some ways:
We still have many books to cover
We are in need of a flat screen monitor for our computer
We will need volunteers to help man the library on Sunday mornings
We always welcome more books and other resources
