Peanut Butter & Jelly Gang
The Peanut Butter & Jelly Gang will be meeting on June 30th. We begin at 8:30 am. This will be our last meeting until September. Our mission is to serve those in need and to provide an opportunity to do good for those who choose to serve. Due to the fact that we will not be meeting during the summer months, please do not drop off any donations at church for the PB&J Gang. Save all of your donations for September. Thank you! If you come to volunteer on June 30th, bring a loaf of white or wheat bread with you. Our supply of peanut butter and jelly is sufficient at this time. Please note that ALL volunteers must wear some type of head covering; a baseball cap is fine. We look forward to having you help us to help those in need. |

Do you know a Senior who's about to graduate from High School?
It is that time of year again – graduation! As many of our teens move onto college, you can help them continue their journey of faith. Many colleges, secular and parochial, provide a Newman Center for incoming Catholic students. These Centers provide pastoral support and ministry to students, in addition to providing a space to meet other catholic students interested in growing in their faith. Please send graduate’s first and last name and college they will be attending via email to campusministry@drvc.org. The respective Newman Connection campus leader will be informed and will welcome the student when they arrive in the fall. Rev. Joseph H.
