Thank You The family of Helen Jurica would like to thank St. Mary’s par-ish for all the prayers, support and love over the past weeks and days. The countless acts of kindness have been a tremen-dous comfort to us during this sad time of losing our beloved mother. Thank you most especially to Father Melvin and Dea-con John for all their help, guidance and assistance at the Ro-sary and funeral Mass. Many thanks also to Joe Rychlik for his beautiful thoughts at the Rosary, as well as his beautiful sing-ing at Mass. Thank you to Donna Rychlik for accompanying him with the music. Special thanks to Tina and Tasha too for all their help. Finally, thank you to the members of the Altar Society for all the desserts, drinks and gracious help during the lunch. We are so blessed to be part of such a caring and sup-portive church family. Certainly, we will not forget all that has been shared with us. Gift Bearers At Mass Have you or your family wanted to be a gift bearer at Mass? There are sign up sheets available for Masses for the month of March on the table for any family that would like to be a gift bearer at Mass. The sign up sheets are in a white binder.
