Thanks to all who donated or tried to donate their blood in Sunday’s blood drive.  Despite having about 50% rejected.

Christmas Eve Mass: 4:00 P.M.  Welcome!

The Mass after Christmas, Dec. 30: No Mass.  Rosemary & I will be in Mexico.

Two questions:

  • What do you think about putting together a community directory with just names, perhaps email addresses, phone number, even address?
  • What about a food drive Christmas Eve?  When St. James Parish said they did not want our donations any more, I forgot about the project.  But, we have Food Banks in Plano & Richardson, and people have said they would like to contribute.

Tree Project update: maybe in December?  Waiting to hear from Collin Co. Child Advocacy Center, Park & Los Rios.

See you Sunday.

    Enjoy Lunch at Amoretto’s on Friday, May 3rd at 12:30. We will be dining on an Italian lunch. The food is very good and very reasonable.  Lunch includes a great salad and wonderful garlic rolls.

    I discovered this restaurant about 8 months ago and we have been back 5 times and never disappointed. It gets even better, it is a BYOB.  Please join us for a fun lunch. I do have to make reservations. This is a small restaurant. Please let me know if you can come.
