Our parish kept busy and active over the summer months. We had a parish car wash that raised more than $600 for the work and ministry of our parish. Thanks to Bank Five and Tracey for making this happen. Our Acolytes attended the annual diocesan Acolyte retreat in Woonsocket - had a great time and learned more about serv-

ing at the Altar. They had some time to make and renew friendships with youth across the diocese.

Our parish neighborhood watch group held an out-door cookout where the business as usual was put aside and we enjoyed each others company and tre-mendous deserts. Our annual summer Clam Boil was another success raising nearly $3000 for

the parish. Congratula-tions to the sisters who won the clam sculpture contest. Thanks to all who prepared and served our summer boil. Thanks also to Frances for donat-ing and selling some of Ted’s paintings for the benefit of the parish. Also we thank the Krudys fam-ily for donating a pair of Red Sox tickets for our raffle.

The Solemnity of

Brotherly Love

“Jesus asked, ‘Which of

these three, do you think,

was a neighbor to the man

who fell into the hands of

the robbers?’ The lawyer

said, ‘The one who showed

him mercy.’ Jesus said to

him, ‘Go and do like-

wise.”’
