Important! The Messenger- each family registered in the parish should be receiving The Messenger. If you have not been receiving it, please give your name to Carol Rector or Fr. Clift.
Do you know someone who might be interested in learning more about the Catholic faith? Each year, we start our RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation) classes for those interested in looking at the Catholic Church. No obligation, just learn about the Faith. Have them call or see Father Clift.

April is the Month to focus on The Holy Eucharist!
The SVdP Corner
The calls keep coming in for help with rent, utilities, and food. There seems to be no let up from the effects of covid! We are asking help for our pantry. Bags can be found in the gathering area and a list of suggested items. Any brand is fine and you are not limited to the list. The bags can be brought in any time to the gathering area and for the Thanksgiving Mass too. The second collection for SVdP is also this week. You are always so very generous. The mobile food pantry is coming Dec. 7 th if anyone would like to help. You need to be virtus trained and we can help you with that. This program takes place during the daytime. Please call Fr. Clift if you are interested.
We are in need of members for our organization, so please give it some consideration. I will be happy to answer any questions or have you accompany me during a transaction with a client. Most of the work is now done by phone because of covid. Call Kathy at 859 866 0430.
God bless us all and keep us safe so we can serve others.

Did you know, we are the closest Catholic Church to the “Ark Encounter”? Don’t hesitate to stop by for Mass!
This is the perfect time to learn to pray the Rosary! http://www.theholyrosary.org/ is an excellent site to visit to learn the prayers and Mysteries if you do not already know them. While we are home more due to covid-19, it gives us time to reflect on the Perfect Love, that is God. It only takes about fifteen to twenty minutes to pray, and the results are Graces given to us through our Blessed Mother.
