Did You Know?
Did you know that faith formation and sacramental preparation are available for all who desire them? Sometimes we get the mistaken notion that a child or adult shouldn't participate because of physical, intellectual or emotional disability or even because of a language barrier. This is simply not true. Call Connie Parente for more information.
Sapevate che il catechismo ed i sacramenti sono disponibili a tutti (fanculli ed adulti)? Delle volte pensiamo che persone con qualche` disabilità non puo` ricevere i sacramenti. Ma questo non e` vero….tutti possono recevere l’istruzione del catechismo ed i sacramenti. Chiamate Connie Parente per altra informazione.
¿Usted sabía que el catecismo y los sacramentos están disponibles a cada uno (niños y adultos)? De las veces pensamos que la gente con alguna inhabilidad no es capaz de recibir los sacramentos. Pero esto no es verdad. Todos son capaces de recibir la educación del catecismo y los sacramentos. Llaman a Connie Parente para otra información.

Hunger USA
Hunger here in the richest nation in the world? Impossible, one might think.
