Reverse collection was held this weekend at the June 11-12 Masses. If you took a tag, buy the item and return it to the church to be donated to the local food pantry. There are food pantry boxes at each entrance. Note from the food pantry: Dear Notre Dame Church, Thank you for your continued support of the NEICAC Howard County Food Pantry. Your reverse collection in March brought over 500 pounds of food and 150 pounds in April into the pantry. Thank you all for helping to feed local families. Martin Ahrndt, Family Services Specialist.

Our Lady (Notre Dame) is asking each of us to pray the rosary every day. The rosary is so powerful and carries with it so many graces. Continue to tally the number of rosaries prayed on any piece of paper and drop the results in the collection basket as part of your offering. Rosaries, along with instructions on how to pray the rosary and tally slips can be found in the News and Literature stand in the church entry. Rosaries prayed in May: 478. Notre Dame, pray for us. Amen.
