Dear Parishioners:

We are no longer accepting donations to the Parish Library.  Our PARISH LIBRARY is being converted into a classroom for our Religious Education program.  Over the years, and thanks to numerous parishioners, we have been the fortunate recipients of some wonderful books, most of which have been donations, and have accumulated so many that we have had to reduce the number of items on our shelves.  The time has come to convert the space from an underutilized library to a much-needed religious education classroom to provide a more structured and comfortable learning environment for our children.  

Therefore, we are seeking a home for some of the 3000 books and tapes now on our shelves, and they are YOURS FOR THE TAKING!  

TREAT YOURSELF TO A GOOD BOOK! COME BROWSE!  

There are books to satisfy anyone’s taste .  Some items will be kept in the library as resources.  Items not “adopted” by parishioners will be donated to various recipients, sold or disposed of.
