Contributing to the cost of the flowers that adorn our altar is one tangible way to remember someone or to give thanks for someone or something special in your life. If you would like to make a donation for the Altar Flowers on Sunday morning, please sign up on the Flower Chart in the hallway that leads to the office. Suggested donations are $40.00
We now have two more possibilities for remembrance and/or thanksgiving: the Sanctuary candle in the Nave and theSanctuary candle in the Chapel. The Sanctuary candle burns throughout the week every week of the year and serves to remind us that the bread and wine of the Eucharist are reserved in the Aumbry (wall safe) in the Sanctuary. The Sanctuary candle burns for seven days (the burn time of the candle). The reserved sacrament is taken to the sick and shut-ins of the parish. The only time the Aumbry is empty is from the end of the Maundy Thursday service until the first Easter Service on Holy Saturday, symbolizing the time of Jesus' passion and death and time in the tomb.
If you would like to make a donation for a Sanctuary candle (Nave or Chapel), please sign up on the sign-up sheet next to Flower Chart. Suggested donations are $10 for the candle in the Nave or the Chapel.
