On Friday June 14, 2024, Deacon Dave visited the Mercy Mats Ministry meeting for a blessing of mats. He blessed all finished mats with holy water. These mats will be given to those individuals without a home during the month. Also, Deacon Dave blessed all the volunteers that worked on creating these mats with love for our neighbors in need.
The Stephen Ministry Annual Retreat was a truly uplifting and rejuvenating experience for all who attended. Held on June 15, this special day was designed specifically for Stephen Ministers and caregivers, providing a unique opportunity for reflection, renewal, and connection.
Throughout the day, attendees were treated to expert presentations on various topics related to caregiving. These informative sessions were balanced with time for music, games, delicious food, and joyful fellowship.
The retreat was a wonderful way to step away from the demands of daily life and recharge their spiritual batteries. It was a day filled with laughter, tears, and meaningful connections with fellow caregivers. Whether you’re a seasoned Stephen Minister or just starting out, this event is a must-attend for anyone involved in this vital ministry.
Join us next year for another inspiring and rejuvenating experience!

During the weekend of August 24/25, Habitat for Humanity sponsors their “Raise the Roof” Event.
The outdoor plaza will be filled with 2 x 4 studs that will be used for the construction of the exterior and interior walls of the Catholic Coalition’s Habitat house. All parishioners are invited to use a Sharpie to sign your name on the wood studs: write a positive message, a line from Scripture, or pen a few words of encouragement to the volunteers who will use these studs to build the house. Besides signing the studs with colorful messages, you can make a donation towards the Coalition build, get a free Habitat wristband, learn about Habitat’s mission and sign up to volunteer for any of the 9 Saturdays that it takes to construct the home. Construction starts on Saturday, September 7th; for additional info, contact Mike Meehan at (404) 374-9074, or Cadmast54@gmail.com
