One of the most important things to be grateful for is our Parish. In the past weeks, we have seen our Parish Family come together for, our famous Roast Beef Dinner and glorious Choir Concert, our 1st Annul Toy Drive, all the gifts that surrounded the Giving Tree, the Christmas Decorations that have been put up so tastefully. We are all truly blessed to belong here at St. Jude the Apostle Parish. To continue on with this spiritual season, I will be available for Confession immediately following all the Masses this weekend . I can not think of a better way to be spiritually prepared. When planning, please keep in mind that there will be no 7:00 P.M. Mass on either Christmas Day or New Year’s Day. The Christmas season is just beginning; so may you and your loved ones continue to enjoy the blessings of this beautiful season. Don’t be too quick to put away the Christmas music just yet, as the twelve days of Christmas haven’t begun. ATTENTION MINISTRY STAFF Sign up sheets are now in the Sacristy for Christmas & New Year’s Masses. If you wish to serve any of these, please sign up ASAP. January – February schedules also are available in the Sacristy. ST. JUDE PARISH SUPPER ITALIAN NIGHT Italian night at St. Jude the Apostle! There will be a raffle table with great prizes.
