�School News
We are grateful for the generous, caring members of
our Church community who contributed to the Ash
Wednesday collection. Our Conference received
the entire collection of $2973 which will be used to
help those in need. Thank you for continuing to live
the Works of Mercy not only with monetary contri-
butions but also the overwhelming response to our
Lenten Food Drive! We will keep all of you in our
prayers of Thanksgiving.
Also, we wish to thank the American Heritage
Troop 0316 for their donation of cheerful place mats
to be given with food from our pantry. The older
members of the Troop regularly move the donated
food from the Commons to the Pantry! These young
ladies are a blessing to our parish! Norrie Bastl, aid-
ed by Linda Cantwell, recently gave the Troop a tour
of the pantry and explained how it works.

Our friends at Ford Motor Company and Cavalier
Auto Group are allowing us to have a "Drive 4 UR
School" event. Please make plans to test drive two
cars on Tuesday, May 7th from 2:30pm-6:30pm at
St. Matthew’s Catholic School. The school will re-
ceive $20 plus a bonus from Ford Motor Compa-
ny. We made $7,220 in August. With your help, we
will hit our goal of $8,000 this time. This fundraiser
to benefit the students and the school doesn't cost
you a dime. We just need a little of your time. You
will not be contacted by Ford or Cavalier after the
event. Thank You!
Our condolences to Fr. Stephen on
the passing of his mother, Mary
Akosua Forda.
There will be a memorial mass on
Wednesday, May 15th at 7pm in
the church. Everyone is invited to
attend.
Congratulations to
Bert & Brigida Monzon as they
celebrate their 50th Wedding
Anniversary! May God continue to
bless you both!
