You are invited to a special mass on Wed., Dec. 13th at 7 p.m. at St. Rose Parish in Forestville for anyone who has lost a child, born or unborn. Call Mary Franklin (965-4803), Pat Johnson (673-5618) or the parish office (934-2233) with the name of your child so that his/her name can be mentioned aloud in prayer.

It is customary for some parents to order a poinsettia plant to be used at the service and that will later remain in the sanctuary for the Christmas season. All are welcome, including those not of our faith tradition.
