prizes to this event.
John
Lawton has booked the University of Notre Dame Men’s Glee Club for
Sunday, March 9, 2003 in the church.
The event will begin around 7 pm and will conclude with a
reception. Families are

A small admission fee will pay for the reception.
The concert fee has been taken care of.
Monsignor
Franco wants the Public Relations Committee to publicize his advent
series in the church bulletin, surrounding parish bulletins and local
newspapers. Topics will
include Bishop Sheen and Dorothy Day.
The
Cultural Committee reports that the focus of the lecture on January 12,
2003 by Fr. Tierney has been changed to “Adolescence:

This lecture will be geared toward youth, but is open to all.
They also informed us that the video taping series on the history
of our church is nearing an end. A
first cut should be ready be January 1st.
All equipment has been loaned by Jeff Cadge for this project.
