Over 50 people attended the Christ Renews Welcome Alumni and Information Gathering after Saturday's 4:00 PM Mass. People who had questions about what to expect at a Christ Renews Welcome Weekend Retreat were able to get answers from previous participants, Deacon Rick, as well as the ministry's Continuation Committee and retreat alum had a nice time catching up with one another.
Parishioners of our Together in Christ Family of Parishes are particularly encouraged to consider attending the Women's Retreat on February 28 & March 1.

You will learn the major people, places, and events of the Bible and discover how they all come together to reveal the remarkable story of our Faith.
