to say the Rosary; others attend at 7:00 am for the
discussion of how the material may guide us.
SHF Pickleball Returns
Adult Pickleball will resume at SHF's
Gym, now on Friday evenings. Pick-
leball is a fun means to get a little
exercise and connect with parishioners socially. The
next session will be weekly from 6:30 to 8:30 pm on
Friday evenings, January 13, 20 & 27. We will need
to skip February entirely and announce the dates in
March later. Watch the Bulletin's Calendar for those
Friday evenings having Pickleball. All adult parish-
ioners, 18 & older, of all play levels (never played to
advanced) are welcome. The only equipment re-
quired to play are court shoes that do not mar the
floor, like tennis or basketball shoes.
