MESSAGE FROM ROSEMARIE DEJOHN: The all-St. Malachi picnic held in August at the Lakewood Women' Pavilion was a great time had by all who attended.  The weather was perfect as were the dogs and burgers cooked by John Daley.  Many thanks to all who took the time to be with other St. Malachi members.  Thanks also to all of you who set up, helped serve, washed in the kitchen, moved tables and chairs and then, cleaned up!   Many hands did make light work!  You are all wonderful. Thanks again to all who came and to all who helped make the picnic such fun!

CSM SYMPATHY AND PRAYERS  
–   for the family and friends of St. Malachi Parish member Boyd Chapman and for the family and friends of Ed Saegel, father of Cathy Saegel.
