A Great Email Letter Re: the Attack on September 11, 2001
  

THANKS for Supporting Our Troops ! - Holiday Greeting via Email. 
http://anyservicemember.navy.mil/ 
We asked you to consider taking some time over the holidays to write an e-mail to a
U.S. service member who is deployed away from home via -- http://anyservicemember.navy.mil/ -- an official Department of Defense website that transmits your message to a sailor, marine, soldier, airman or coast guardsman serving in Operation Enduring Freedom. While you did not know the final recipient, your
support certainly helped boost morale!

SPECIAL MASS - Was Held on Saturday 5:00pm 12-1-01
This was a special mass where His Eminence Cardinal Roger M. Mahony Archbishop of Los Angeles was AGAIN at our Parish. This Mass was in recognition of the new promotion & title of “Protonotory Apostolic” that our “Most Reverend Monsignor Lenihan” has recently received.

Our wonderful choir performed some new pieces that they had been diligently rehearsing over the previous several weeks. THANK YOU for the strong turnout to show Monsignor our support and love.
