Greetings in Christ, all! I need to start this article off by begging… We are in serious need of catechists for our religious education program.

Greetings in Christ! At the time of the writing of this bulletin article, I am getting ready to go in for my MRI. It’s been an interesting and frustrating process, but I am hopeful that when they get the MRI, my doctor will be able to take action and get my knee going again. Thank you […]
