Our Shepherds – Our Future Capital Campaign Kicks Off May 1/2

This weekend marks the official start of the Our Shepherds – Our Future Capital Campaign in our parish. A packet has been prepared for each registered parishioner and has been mailed to your home. The packet contains a letter which includes a specific dollar amount that you are asked  to prayerfully consider. Please review the campaign material, pray about your response, and continue to spread the positive message about this important effort.

YM3 Living Stations ~ View Online

To view all of the Living Stations videos click on the 3 bars in the upper right hand corner that has “1/5” listed below them.

#LivingStationsYM3 The teens of YM3 have been working hard the last few weekends to create the Living Stations as a video series since we couldn’t host it with a live audience under the current guidelines. We will post two Stations a day for all of Holy Week, so please tune in and share! We hope these videos help you contemplate on Our Lord’s Passion and Death during this Passiontide.
