There’s one catch … you will not be a winner unless you purchase a ticket! Tickets are available after most Masses in June at the main entrance to the Church. Tickets are also available at both the 14 Holy Helpers Rectory (Mondays and Fridays) and the Queen of Heaven Rectory (Monday through Friday) during their respective business hours. And if that doesn’t work for you, reach out to Ginny by cell phone (716-512-3221) or email (drvsstolarsk@gmail.com).
You probably know by now that our Summerfest lawn fete will not be held this year. Your support of the other events that we are running is important to provide for the financial viability of our church. If you are able to help us out, please consider buying a ticket or two. You never know … you might be one of the 34 winners!
