In an effort to have parishioners participate more fully in the weekend masses, we would like to invite those who have offered mass intentions to bring the gifts up for the Offertory. If you have scheduled a mass to be celebrated for a loved one, you may now sign up on the day of the mass or (preferably) earlier. A clipboard with dates and mass times will be at the main entrance at St. Joseph Church and in the Sacristy at Mary Queen of Peace Church. Simply check off the appropriate date and time so that we know you are planning to carry the gifts up to the priest. Please arrive ten minutes before the mass on the intentioned day and introduce yourself to one of the Mass Coordinators (those with green name badges) so that they know you are indeed present and participating. As the ushers/collectors begin to pass the offertory baskets, please proceed to the rear of the church, where someone will guide you through the very simple process. Thank you for your thoughtfulness and for your participation!
