Did you
ever wonder? Who does the laundry that the Church produces from every Mass
or Liturgical Service?
Yes? . . .
Maybe? . . ..
Who cares? . ....The Church teaches
that all cloths that touch the Body and Blood of Our Lord must be washed
respectfully and by themselves with no other laundry at all. At St.
Francis we have a dedicated group of women and some men who dutifully gather up
the dirty linens and wash them. Ironing and folding them and placing them
back into the Sacristy to be used at another Service. In days gone by this
duty was normally carried out by the Nuns of the parish and later by lay men and
women. Our parishioners take pride in knowing that they are serving their
Church and God by helping to keep the Linens clean.
The following persons help clean linens at St. Francis of
Assisi Church:
Marianne Calabrese: Mary Ann Calabrese; Phyllis Dunn; Anita Guille; Norma
Miller; Mildred Mullen; Pat McGuire; Deacon Art McGuire; Linda Sanelli; Joyce
Wallacavage; Michael Wallacavage; Deacon Tim Baxter.

but important way? Contact you local Parish Church to find out what you
