A special thank you to Marcie Warner who is leaving  as DRE this month.  She did a great job with Vacation Bible School.  While Marcie will not be employed here, she assured me that we she will volunteer and help Earl Tropp, our new full-time DRE.
​
We welcome Eileen Rusnack as our new Coordinator  of Parish Ministries.  Eileen will start this month and while she will be working just roughly ten hours a week, I know she will be a great asset in organizing, facilitating and assessing the many ministries we have in our parish!  Welcome, Eileen!

Religious Freedom Week: June 22 - 29, 2018

6/21/2018

0 Comments

 
Picture
"[Religious] freedom remains one of America's most precious possessions.  And, as my brothers, the United States Bishops, have reminded us, all are called to be vigilant, precisely as good citizens, to preserve and defend that freedom from everything that would threaten or compromise it."

                                                                                - Pope Francis

Picture
People of faith are committed to serving others in God's love in healthcare, child welfare, migration and refugee resettlement, education, and more.  Religious freedom protects the space in which we can continue to serve.  Religious Freedom Week begins June 22, the Feast of Sts. Thomas More & John Fisher. Join Catholics across the country to pray and act for the freedom to serve faithfully and with integrity.
