MOP (Maintain Our Parish).

These great folks organized themselves to provide TLC to our parish grounds. They gather every Saturday at 8 AM at the flag pole in front of the parish school and then go to work with mowing, pruning, washing (windows), sweeping…. whatever is needed. They’ve clearly made a huge difference in the appearance of the grounds (remember the big monster stones the kids used to dive off—to the never-ending anxiety of their parents? Well, they’re gone. Look for a new barbecue grille/pit soon to take their place). The MOP folks, as well as our parish Knights (of Columbus), Youth Core Team members and others pitched in to make the rummage sale last weekend a great success. They raised $5,027 towards the OLG Sports Court/parking lot Project.
