Newman Time Recognized!
Our unique style and schedule can be confusing to those who are visiting or are new to the community. To address this issue, the published times of our Masses are going to change to reflect the realities of Newman Time. Saturday’s vigil Mass will now be published as 5:15 PM and our Sunday morning Masses will now be published as 9:15 and 10:45 AM. We will also reference in our publication 5 PM, 9 and 10:30 AM as Newman Gathering Time.
We hope that those who had expressed concern about Newman Time will recognize that your concerns were heard and acted upon. And, please note – for those of us used to Newman Time – nothing is changing.
Donations Needed!
+ Homeless Ministry is now collecting travel sizes for these items: socks, tissues, deodorant, razors, body wash, mouthwash, Chapstick, hand sanitizer/wipes, toothbrushes, and toothpaste. Please drop off in the box in lobby.
+ The Debbie Brown Pizza Fund is ongoing, if you wish to donate, please place your donation in the container in the front lobby, we appreciate your generosity always!
