Bishop Nowicki’s Visit Read More »
Our Bishop, the Rt. Rev. Bernard Nowicki will visit with the parish on Sunday, March 23rd. Bishop would like to meet with as many parishioners and friends as possible, and continue discussion on new priest and new beginning for St. Valentine’s Parish. Holy Mass is scheduled for 11:30am. We will gather in the parish hall for coffee and cake with Bishop after Holy Mass.
The parish committee is in process of getting the rectory ready for our new priest. This is a challenging and time consuming job. Donations of time or funds to assist in the renovation would be greatly appreciated. We still need a new stove and gallons of paint. If you need any information you can always call Julie Brown at 215-698-2696 or Joyce Paluszkiewicz at 267-640-7340.
We are also planning a Palm Sunday Brunch. Again, any donations would be greatly appreciated.
