Message from Fr. Ivan
Fourth Sunday of Advent
NEW LIGHTS!!
On Saturday, December 7, the Saint Pius Parish men’s service group along with members of the St. Anthony men’s prayer group, four master electricians, and Mr. Tom Martin took time from their busy schedules and converted the entire school building to LED lighting. This will achieve significant energy and maintenance savings for St. Anthony for many years to come. Special thanks to Mr. Tom Martin who helped prep and coordinate the project along with Ken Oleynik and Mike Hardig. Participants were: Tom Ruberg, Rafael Torres, Tony Ward, Roger Andrews, Ron Durrett, Doug Ruberg, Greg George, Ken Lonneman, Greg Arlinghaus, Nate Arlinghaus, Brian Fisher, and Tom Ewing. THANKS TO ALL!!!
