Saint Patrick's to designate July as a Sabbath month. Sabbath practices of all kinds are very important. They provide a biological, psychological and spiritual balance that positions us for deeper and more vibrant living. It has come to my attention that Saint Patrick's used to employ a wonderful practice of taking a "July Sabbath." During the month of July, the church's volunteer ministries took a sabbath from all work that was not directly related to worship. The parish rested for a month. This makes sense to me. Just as we are called to rest one day a week, so too are we called to longer periods of extended rest. I encourage all non-worship related ministries to consider taking up the practice. Let's reengage a vital spiritual practice. In Faith, Mark Forbes.

Saint Patrick's is no longer recycling aluminum cans for revenue, using the large trash can that was placed outside each Sunday. Thanks to Amy Vershel for her work in managing this effort. Please take advantage of the many ways these cans may now be recycled, such as through the transfer station, "Can-Do" efforts at schools, through regular recycling pick-up, etc. For the occasional aluminum can you may have at church, please us the recycling bins located in the hallway between the choir room and kitchen. Please remember to rinse or empty all recyclables.
