Parish Social Day!
Due to a lack of enough volunteers Saint Agnes will not be able to host a Vacation Bible School again this summer. However, we will host a day of children’s Bible activities and crafts from 3:30-6:00 pm on Saturday, June 27th, culminating in an Ice Cream Social for the Parish at 6:00 pm, following the Saturday evening Masses. All events will be held in Saint Agnes School Hall and on the lawn outside Saint Agnes School. We would especially like to thank and extend this invitation in a special way to all of the dedicated parishioners who have volunteered in the past year in order to make education and social outreach ministries work. Thank you! If you are interested in helping with the Parish Social Day, please email Marianne Hudelson SaintAgnesFamilies@gmail.com

This Tuesday, May 26th, we will meet at Winn Brook Playground (173 Cross St., Belmont).  This park is designed like a maze, and also features a zip line, swings, and tot area. Please bring your own lunch or snack and join us!

**NOTE THAT our outdoor summer schedule is highly dependent on good weather. If the weather seems questionable, please check your email or the blog page before you leave for playgroup. In case of rain, playgroup will be cancelled for the day. Thanks!**
