Just because the person is a stranger, maybe looks different than us or is someone we don’t particularly care for doesn’t let us off the hook. Liturgy Blessings, Fr.

One way that this appeal works to strengthen home mission dioceses in the United States is by funding seminarian formation in poor dioceses. The blessing of seminarians places a financial burden on these dioceses, where educating each seminarian costs $35-40K per year. Your support is needed for these young men so that they might go back and serve their parishes. Please strengthen the Church at home by making a generous gift to next week’s appeal. Envelopes are in this week’s bulletin. Know your Body: Love your Spouse April 30, 2015 & May 3, 2015 Creighton Method Fertility Care Introductory Session with Liz Escoffery FCPI.
