Vocations for the Priesthood....
We have had the privilege of host all the seminarians from Cardinal Glennon College the past two summers. Getting to know our future priests is a great honor. For those who may wish to actively pray for our future priests, we have a "traveling vocation kits" going around our parishes. It has a blessed crucifix, rosary and prayer cards. Please call the office if you and your family would like to take a week to pray for vocations to the priesthood and religious life.

Picnic 2009.... As of Wednesday, June 24th we only have 142 items for our bottle blast stand. Please begin collecting items, the more items, the more we make. For example, we need catsup, mustard, jelly, jams, soda, wine, fruit drinks, nail polish, shampoo, household cleaners and car care products. We have a box in the back of Church where you may deposit your items. Our next picnic meeting will be on Wednesday, July 22nd in the parish hall.
