“On behalf of the Saint Christopher Parish, I wish to thank Cynthia, Mark, and Natalie, Jim P., Ethan and Ethan’s father, Laura T., Mike B., Fr. Rick, and Mary and Noel for their solid work last weekend during the Saint Christopher Parish Clean Up. Doors/the sign cross/handicap spot are painted, handrails are painted, cobwebs have disappeared, leaves have been vacuumed from window wells and around the AC units, trees trimmed, and the garage has been swept. Please know we appreciate your efforts and due diligence. Additionally, a “shout out” to our resident chef extraordinaire Fr. Rick for the delicious lunch. Thank you one and all!!! ” Marybeth K.
