Today, the Church commemorates the Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity, and today, With Gratitude to Almighty God, the "family" of Queen of Peace Church in Patton, PA, is united in one Body to celebrate and commemorate the 25th Anniversary of the Priesthood Ordination of our Pastor, Fr. Ananias, O.S.B. *** We love you Father, and we thank you for all you have done for "this family" and our beautiful Church. May Almighty God grant you good health and many more years of Priestly service with us here at Queen of Peace! --Parish Bulletin, May 27, 2018

* Blessed are Mothers, who did without for us, they will be rewarded. * Blessed are Mothers, who lost sleep when we were sick, they will find rest. * Blessed are Mothers, who taught us how to pray, they will share God’s kingdom. * Blessed are Mothers, who comforted us, they shall be comforted. * Blessed are Mothers, who taught us right from wrong, they will know justice. * Blessed are Mothers, who shared with us the meaning of peace, they shall know peace. * Blessed are Mothers, who taught us the importance of loving God and each other, they shall see God. God Bless Your Mother’s Day! (Reprinted with permission from: Apple Seeds, Fr. Brian Cavenaugh, TOR). --Parish Bulletin, May 13, 2018

May 12/13 - On Mother’s Day weekend, you will have the opportunity to support Birthright’s pro-life work. -- At each Mass, we will have beautiful carnations to share with you in exchange for a $1 donation. -- Remember, we are not “selling” flowers; they are merely a symbol of our celebration of life! -- Thank you for making a donation that reflects your own commitment to protecting the sanctity of life.

Held in conjunction with the “Patton Yard Sale” on Sat., June 2, beginning at 9 a.m., Queen of Peace will hold its Garage & Bake Sale. -- Please check your attic for any clean, working usable "treasures" that you would like to donate. **We will not accept clothing, shoes, tires, encyclopedias, or TVs.** -- You may bring your "treasures" to the upper level of the Parish Center from Mon., May 28 through Thurs., May 31, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day.
