Housekeeping
The life of our parish community continues to thrive through many organizations and ministries as well as many planned activities throughout the year. These groups and activities enrich the parish family by providing opportunities get to know each other, to grow stronger in our faith, to use our talents in service to our parish community, and to convert our faith into action.
You are invited to join these activities and organizations in helping bring grace and charity to our parish.
St. Benedict’s Parish has no cleaning service except the members who faithfully see that our House of God is respectfully cleaned on a weekly basis. Semi-annually major cleaning is performed before Christmas and Easter. St. Anne’s Sodality oversees the coordination of the cleaning though the men are regular helpers.
Weekly Cleaning: There are teams of 2 persons or more who sign up to clean a particular week of the month. There is flexibility when the cleaning is done during the week but it is finished by Saturday afternoon. All weeks are numbered by Saturdays. (i.e.Team 1 is 1st Saturday of the Month and so on.)
Major Cleaning: Prior to Christmas and Easter there is an all-day Chapel cleaning and grounds spruce up on a Saturday. Windows, light fixtures, pews, candlesticks, etc. get a thorough going over.
