Cleaning Updates

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who has stayed to clean after Masses! It is very much appreciated since “many hands make light work.”

• If anyone is interested in giving just 1 hour of their time once a month to help clean the rest of the church building, the Second Saturday of each month is in most need of extra volunteers.
• If regular commitment doesn’t work for you but you can help out occasionally as your schedule permits, please consider joining our substitute list! The work can be tailored to your tastes and abilities – no heavy lifting required. Even if you can only give a few minutes, every bit helps so please consider signing up.

If interested or if you have any questions, please contact Sara Sides, clean@materdei-pa.com. Thank you!
