Terrill Assistant Pastor Sunday Masses: 6:30—8:00—10:00—11:30 The Changing of Time Sunday caused confusion at St Christopher as well as at other places.

Saturday is First Saturday and the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi. Masses on Friday will be at 6:15 and 8 o’clock in the morning and at 8 o’clock in the evening. Forty-Hours Devotion will begin with the celebration of the High Mass on Friday morning at 8 o’clock for the parish. (Continued on page 7)
