Do you hear your heart call?
Maybe you weren’t baptized, or you missed Confirmation- perhaps you just want to learn more about the Catholic Church, what we believe and more importantly, why we believe it.
Starting this fall, we will have relaxed discussions about our faith- it’s a great opportunity to ask questions, maybe to become a member of the family!
Please see Fr. John and join us!
Catholic Appeal update
St. Francis and St. Mary- St. Catherine have both hit
over 100% of our Catholic Appeal assessments!
The Appeal helps our parishes, Collaborative
and our Archdiocese! Please give and help us build
the ministries so many around us need.
Go to catholicappeal.com and answer the call!
Summertime
Summer is here but the needs remain- please consider online giving to help us pay our bills and plan
for the future. Give us a call or drop us a note and
we’ll walk you through the process. Thank you!
