The Third Banns of Marriage are announced for Mr. Nicholas Mancuso of Queen Creek, AZ, and Miss Anastasiya Kopczak of Queen Creek, AZ, who plan to be married at Our Lady of Sorrows on August 24, 2024. Any persons knowing of an impediment to this union are obliged in conscience to notify the pastor as soon as possible.

Poor & Needy Fund: This year to date, the church has helped parishioners in need with almost $40,000. Donations to the poor fund totaled only $8,000, so the remainder came out of church funds meant for operating expenses. We cannot continue to assist those in need at the expense of paying our own bills. Therefore, your continued generosity to the poor & needy fund is much needed and greatly appreciated!
