Altar Memorials - Frequently we seek to honor people by sending them flowers.  They are a beautiful tribute.  Traditionally flowers are likewise placed on the altars in churches to honor family and friends both living and deceased.  I would like to begin placing flowers regularly on the altar and your participation is welcome.  In addition to flower memorials you can also have the Bread and Wine for the week offered in memory or in honor of a loved one.  In order to share in these offerings, stop by the receptionist office in the Parish Center.  The offerings are as follows:  Main Altar Arrangements: (one arrangement) $90.00  Shrines:  Blessed Mother, St. Joseph, St. Philip: (one arrangement) $75.00  Blessed Sacrament Altar: (two arrangement) $115.00  Bread and Wine:  $35    Each week the bulletin will list the names of those in whose honor the flowers or Bread and Wine have been offered.  A memorial card will be available for you to send to family or friends in the same way you would send a mass card. 

ABOUT SAINT PHILIP NERI: St. Philip Neri was a priest whom the people nicknamed the Saint of Joy because God had gifted him with a special sense of humor. His smile went with him when he visited the sick and the imprisoned, and when he served pilgrims who traveled to Rome.
