Pot Roast Dinner To-Go: Save the Date
We will have a Pot Roast Supper on Saturday, March 25. As with everything, the cost has increased to $18. per meal. This will be a take out supper with pickup behind the church from 5-6 p.m. Checks to reserve your dinners can be made out to Our Lady of the Hills with "Dinner" in the memo line. They can be sent to the office at 173 Main St Haydenville, 01039 or placed in the collection box at the weekend Masses. We are looking for a donation of 75 lbs. of carrots.

Lenten Regulations for 2023 beginning on Ash Wednesday, February 22
1. Ash Wednesday and Good Friday are days of abstinence from meat as well as days of fast, when only one full meal is allowed. On days of fast, two other meatless meals may be taken according to one’s needs, but together they should not equal another full meal.
2. The other Fridays of Lent are days of abstinence from meat.
3. The obligation to abstain from meat begins at age fourteen (14) and does not cease.
4. The obligation to fast begins at age eighteen (18) and ceases at age fifty-nine (59).
Please note: Although the faithful may excuse themselves from fast and abstinence, for a just cause, there is an obligation to substitute another penance in its place. No Catholic should lightly excuse him/herself from these Lenten obligations.
Eucharistic Adoration and Benediction
Every Monday from 1-3 P.M. Eucharistic adoration will take place with Benediction at 2:50. Stop in for however long you want.
