Eucharistic Night of Adoration in Memory of Colleen Wishall
“We all have a mission of love—what an exciting opportunity that is! Take some time this week to consider how you can build up those around you with the gifts God has given you. Something that seems small to you might be just what is needed.” --Colleen Wishall

Frassati Hike
