ATTENTION PARENTS! When we are having events in the parish center, we kindly ask you to please DO NOT let your children run across the stage, up and down the steps leading to the stage, and up and down the ramp into meeting room #2. We are very

concerned that someone is going to get hurt and we want to keep all of our precious

children safe from harm! Please watch your children when in the parish center.
