WE ARE HIRING A NURSERY DIRECTOR!
This fall, we will open our new facility that will include a nursery for ages 4 and under during weekend Masses, and 13 and under during our evening
ministries/meetings during the week.
We need a qualified person to help us oversee this
new ministry. This is a part time, paid position (up to
25 hours per week) that will be involved with
coordinating all aspects of the nursery. This person
will help us develop policies and guidelines, train and
schedule babysitters, keep the nursery and its
contents safe and clean, and be available as a
babysitter when necessary. We are looking for a
person who has excellent communication and
organization skills, experience in working with children
and parents, certification in CPR/AED procedures
(or be willing to get certified). Our director will need to
obtain all safe environment training required by the
Archdiocese and authorize us to conduct a
background check. Please send resume to
[email protected] or mail/deliver a hard
copy to the parish office by Monday, March 12, 2018.

Helping Hands Ministry This ministry helps with transportation to Mass or doctor appointments, light yard work, household chores, snow
removal, meals, or visits. If you need help, or know someone who does,
please fill out the cards that will be available in the pews the
weekend of March 3-4th. You may also contact Mary at 970-686-2310.

Holy Communion Modification Life is precious! Several people in CO have died from the flu this year, including healthy adults.
Because this year’s flu is unusually dangerous, we as a church are taking extra precautions.
At all Masses we will no longer be distributing the cups of Precious Blood to the congregation. Only the Precious Body of Christ (form of bread) will be distributed. By receiving just one form of
the Eucharist you are still receiving the whole Christ: Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity (CCC#1390). Most
Catholics throughout the world receive only the Host. If you have gluten difficulties, please speak to the deacon before Mass and he will help you get a
low-gluten host. We apologize for any inconvenience, but saving lives
is worth a little inconvenience (especially during Lent). We plan to keep this policy until the medical
community determines that the flu season has passed. Please also pray for the families who have
lost loved ones from the flu this year, especially their young children.. In Christ, Fr. Gregg
