Blessed Sacrament Parish Mission Outreach Our newly revised Mission Outreach group is planning their first local event here in Springfield. Blessed Sacrament is sponsoring a local cookout for residents of the Edgewood Trailer Park. We are looking for parish volunteers and school families to help grill burgers/hot dogs, set up tables/chairs, transport equipment, tear down and provide items for the cookout. It is our hope that volunteers will stay and mingle with the residents and meet other people in our community. Spanish speakers are particularly welcome! This is a great opportunity for our parish community to put into action our Lord's command to "love your neighbor" in a spirit of generosity, caring, and fun. The cookout will take place on Sunday, October 9 from 4:00 - 6:00 PM. For more information contact Deacon Tom Burns at tbmb70@yahoo.com. Access the sign-ups through the links on the right.
