All January Sessions planned for the Synod discussions will be held via Zoom. Please take a flyer on the way out of church and rsvp for the session of your choice. The first sessions will take place this coming weekend Saturday and Sunday, January 15^th and 16^th.

Annual Catholic Appeal

The 2022 Annual Catholic Appeal is beginning. The Annual Catholic Appeal funds a broad range of essential ministries, programs and agencies that deliver pastoral care and human services where they are most needed. Every gift is an opportunity for us to come together as a family of faith to support diocesan-sponsored programs that no single parish can provide on its own.
