Announcements
Saint Alphonsus Volunteers
Nine members of the altar servers from St. Alphonsus Roman Catholic Church in Zionsville and their adult chaperone volunteered to move 32 tons of structural lumber to our parish. The lumber was donated to our church by Keystone Construction. The lumber came from the Carmel Lofts construction site. Parishioners Mike Piland, Bill Ferguson, Kevin Zahn, Joe, Nicholas & Thomas Kupec worked with our volunteers to load, sort and store the lumber. Thanks to Max Beaver who coordinated the truck. This wood will go a long way to support capital improvements at St. Athanasius in 2011. Special thanks to Marcus Loidolt, Mary Kupec and John Danovich for catering lunch for the volunteers. Mike Haluska and the volunteers took time to measure the kitchen as part of the kitchen expansion plans. God grant your servants many years!
