Attention Catholic
Parents... "Catholic School 4 Me" - a group of Parents
Committed to K-12 Catholic Education in Southern Madison County
- is organizing interested families to join our efforts. We
will be investigating the feasibility of establishing a new
Catholic High School and working to promote K-12 Catholic
education in our area. We are currently forming a founding
board of representatives from St. Elizabeth School in Granite
City, Holy Family School in Granite City, St. Paul Catholic
School in Highland, Ss. Peter & Paul School in Collinsville,
St. Boniface Catholic School in Edwardsville, St. Mary School
in Edwardsville, and St. John Neumann Catholic School in Maryville.
To learn more about our group and our progress, please visit

Rosary
Repair
Do you have a broken rosary that you would like to have repaired
or just no longer need? Mr. Peyton House will collect broken
rosaries and repair them for you or take them off your hands.
Please place them in the box in the church lobby with the
appropriate information.
Greeters
Needed
Greeters are people who welcome the parishioners into Mass
with a smile and friendly words. We typically have a parish
family (that would include couples, mother/daughter, parents
with children) be the greeters. Greeters are a simple step
toward making people feel welcome. St. Mary's Parish started
its greet program at the 10:30am Mass over a year ago. It
has been well received. We would like to increase our greeters
to have more at 10:30 and some at the 8:00am & 5:00pm
Masses. If you are interested in being a greeter, please contact
the parish office at 656-4857.
