St. William's Outreach Ministry
The August collection is for Bridging, which provides furnishings and household goods to low income families and individuals transitioning to stable housing. There is ongoing need for linen and bath items so the following donations are requested: bath mats, shower curtains and hooks, bathroom rugs, soap dishes, toothbrush holders, pillow cases, fitted sheets/flat sheets in all sizes, blankets, kitchen towels/dish cloths and bath towels/hand towels and wash cloths. Leave items in the Gathering Space collection crib or bring them to the parish office.
THANK YOU for your generous support for those in need.
A Word from our Pastor
This weekend, August 3/4, there will be anointing of the sick/elderly after each Mass.
The new roof on the church is scheduled to begin the week of August 12. Providing the weather cooperates, the project should take about a week. Be aware there will be some safety measures to be followed during this time. Thanks to all who have contributed to the roof and elevator fund.
Looking ahead. Masses for the Holy day in honor of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary: Wednesday, August 14 vigil at 6:00PM and Thursday, August 15 at Noon

THE HISTORY OF OUR CHURCH
The Church of St William was started in 1963 by Archbishop Leo Binz who named the parish after his predecessor, Archbishop William Brady. St William was born in 1085 in Vercelli, Italy. William was a hermit who led a life of solitude, prayer, penance and sharing of faith by founding several religious communities in Italy. It is said that St. William performed a miracle by restoring the sight to a blind man. St. William died in 1142. His feast day is observed on June 25.
