Bishop Campbell

Bishop Campbell suffered a slight heart attack. He is recovering but will be in the hospital until this weekend. Please remember him in your prayers.

Parish Mission

What a blessing! Once again we see the talents of our parish family displayed to the amazement of all. A lot of prayer and effort went into making this a blessing. I believe this is the best parish mission I've witnessed. Fr. Ron's message were right on target. The witness speakers touched my heart deeply. The enthusiastic response of everyone made it a celebration of the Joy of Gathering and Sharing.
