AMONG OUR TEEN PARISHIONERS
are those who are athletes of talent, perseverance and
notoriety. Is it a coincidence that they are also among us at
Mass here in the presence of our Lord? The influence of our Lord
responds to all who are true to His will - including the young
athletes among us. God Bless them all as they practice their
faith, along with their practice for their games.

for Your Choose Life License Plate

We are very close to having a specialty plate in Massachusetts
that benefits our pregnancy crisis centers. Won't you help?
Register for your own Choose Life License Plate and then tell
your friends, your relatives, your co-workers to do the same.
We need 3000 registrants in order to get this plate on the road.
When you register for the plate, you pay $40 more than your
regular registration fee. $12 goes to pay for the plate and $28
goes to Choose Life, Inc. which will distribute it to the
centers. Registration forms can be downloaded from the website
www.MaChoose-Life.org.

has formed and will gather on Mondays at 5:00 PM,
prior to the Novena in church.
PLEASE INFORM
the rectory office if you should move to a new location, change

most helpful to the office and we in turn will inform the Lord,
wherever you are.
THIS
NOTE FROM CHARLOTTE DECKER:
"Interest in a reunion on meeting of all former members of
Immaculate Conception prayer groups has surfaced recently. It
would be great, if we could all come together for an evening of
prayer, praise and fellowship. Non-former members are also
welcome. If interested, please call Charlotte Decker at (978)
368-0191 with a night that would be best for you. Time flies so
let's get the Spirit flowing. Remember the recent Pentecost
readings –"the Holy Spirit is in all of us" – but He needs to be
nurtured. "
Thank you
to those of you who maintain your weekly support during the
summer months. Those "makeup" envelopes which are turned in
before you leave, are much appreciated. |
