If you wish to have your home blessed please call the Rectory for an appointment. It would be very helpful if you could organize your neighbors and/or relatives so that the priest may visit several homes on the same day. Many thanks for your donations towards flowers for the church. We wish all of our families a blessed holiday season. Tel: (617) 323-5242 or (617) 323-5248
