ANOINTING OF THE SICK
On October 1st after the 4:30 mass, the Sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick will be celebrated in church for all those who wish to share in this sacrament. If you are currently undergoing any ongoing medical treatment, dealing with any illness or disease, advanced in age, or struggling in any way (either physically or mentally), please remember that this sacrament is for your peace and healing. Perhaps those who will not be staying after mass for service could please park in the back of the church to make leaving a little bit easier. Thank You.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS
OLSH Day of Service
Are you interested in volunteering without a long term commitment? The Upcoming Day of Service is just for you. Our parish will have several opportunities for individuals, families and organizations to come together and serve our community on Saturday, October 22.
Consider volunteering for one of the following:
- Assisting the needy in our local community - may involve raking leaves, cleaning out gardens, cleaning windows, minor repairs
- Holy Cross Cemetery - May involve trimming grass, exposing buried stones, raking leaves - perhaps in an area designated for religious sisters.
- Helping at the St. Vincent DePaul Dining Room and Donation center in Buffalo (at least 14 years old)
- If you cannot be present, perhaps make a donation to help a local non-profit:”Sleep in Heavenly Peace”. They make beds for needy children. New bedding for single beds or cash can be donated. Or donate on line at shpbeds.org and select Buffalo chapter.
- Serve Lunch for the other volunteers back here at OLSH.
Also, if you are in need and could use help around the house raking leaves, cleaning out gardens, cleaning windows, minor repairs, please let us know. First come, first served. Email or call the parish office.
