“Souper” Bowl Weekend!

Join us at Mass February 8 & 9, big game weekend – our faithful youth will be at the entrance of each of our 3 churches with soup pots. They are collecting monetary donations and non-perishable foods for our Pellston & Cheboygan food pantries. Last year was a great success, raising over $2000 – help us raise even more this year and support our locals who need some assistance. All donations stay local. Thank you for supporting our youth and our CPR Parishes communities.

Change in Mass location this Tuesday & Wednesday

The new sound system at St. Mary/St. Charles will be installed this week through Feb. 6. Therefore, out of reverence, the Blessed Sacrament has been removed from the tabernacle. Tuesday (6 pm) and Wednesday (9 am) Masses will be at Sacred Heart Church. (SMSC Church will not be open during the day so they can run wires where needed. The church will be open for 1st Friday.)
