Hospitality Captain Training
Starting this fall, we’ll be having Donut Sunday three times a month and adding hospitality after Saturday Mass once a month. To assist with this effort, we are recruiting Hospitality Captains. Captains ensure set up is done, the coffee machine is started, and donuts are delivered as well as direct other volunteers. The time commitment is 2–3 hours for a Donut Sunday and 1.5 hours for a Saturday hospitality. Each captain will volunteer 3 times during the year.
Email Trish Lawson if interested. Training will be held in Howley Hall (lower level of the church).
Women’s Club Kickoff Potluck
Women of the parish and school are encouraged to attend our annual Kickoff Potluck! We'll gather in Howley Hall after 10:30 a.m. Mass. Bring a dish to share (and if you can, a friend who hasn't been to a Women's Club event yet).
*Mass
Due to a staff retreat, Mass at 7:30 a.m. is canceled. All are welcome to attend Mass with staff at 9 a.m. instead.
Red Cross Blood Drive
The Red Cross has declared the second national blood supply crisis in its history as donations have dramatically decreased this summer. Please donate and encourage your family and friends to donate! We'll host another blood drive on Tuesday, Aug. 25 from in the School Commons (note the location change).
Note: This date falls in a small window that enables whole blood donors from June to donate in August and still be eligible to donate in October. Register for an appointment to give in any of these ways:
At redcrossblood.org; enter sponsor code COHS
Call 800-RED-CROS (800-733-2767)
In the back of church Aug. 15–16 and 22–23
