September 7—Labor Day — Parish Offices Closed This date typically marks the end of summer vacation and the beginning of regular parish and school activities. While this year is different with the COVID virus, nonetheless we are encouraged to participate in the spiritual and temporal works of mercy of our local faith community. Tuesday, Sept. 8 -- Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary This feast day marks the anniversary of the dedication of a basil-ica in Jerusalem built (according to tradition) on the location of the home of St. Anne, the mother of Mary. Friday, Sept. 11 -- Anniversary of 9/11/01 On this day it is appropriate to take time to honor all firefighters, police officers and emergency medical personnel who serve our local community, as well as to remember those who died that day. Saturday, Sept. 12 -- The Most Holy Name of the Blessed Vir-gin Mary God our Father is glorified by the exalted role in the salvation of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Thus, her name is a name of honor, a holy name, a maternal name and a name responsive to the needs of the Church.
