Halloween Costumes & All Saints Day

This year Halloween falls on a Sunday (October 31), and we would like to invite all kids and kids-at-heart (better known as adults) to come to Sunday service in their costumes!  Who knows what treats (or tricks) Fr. Alex might have up his sleeve!

We will celebrate All Saints on Sunday, November 7.  We encourage you to bring photos and/or mementos of your loved ones to the 8 and 10:30 am services on November 7 where they will be displayed as we remember and celebrate those who have come before us. ​
​Would you be willing to give a ride to one of our non-driving parishioners to or from appointments on an infrequent basis?  If so, please send your name and contact information to Lisa in the Parish Office and you will be added to our list.
​Meals from the Heart 

We are looking for volunteers to be home chefs to cook meals, or to financially provide a restaurant meal for our parishioners who may be need. 
 If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Sharla Parrish.
Creation Care Team News!

​On Saturday, July 24, the Creation Care team cleaned up along Golf Course Road. 
We had a good litter clean up.  Although there are only five folks in the photo there were 10 of us, including four Lenzos.  As shown we collected eight 13 gal. bags worth.

Thank you everyone who showed up to help the next clean up is scheduled for October. Details to come. Stay tuned.
Car Available

Do you or someone you may know need a car?  A parishioner would like to sell (for a low price) a 2005 Nissan Altima.  The car runs, but needs work. Contact the Parish Office if interested. ted. ​
Mandatory 10-Digit Dialing Coming to New Mexico

For those of you who still have a landline start practicing dialing our area code before the phone number. Starting October 24, 2021, it will be mandatory. 

This change is because starting July 16, 2021, the National Suicide Prevention and Mental Health Crisis Lifeline will have a three digit phone number - 988. 

Remember to start using our area code. When you call the office dial 505-896-1999 and by October you will be a natural.
