This Advent decide to live differently, let's live in hope.  

Sometimes it is easy to get lost in the worries of the world and become weary and exhausted.  Let us listen and ponder on Isaiah's words “They that have Hope in the Lord will renew their Strength” Isaiah 40:31

All catechists and Ministry Leaders are Welcome! Come join us for a time of renewal, so we can be Pilgrims of Hope this Advent.

The annual Respect Life Gathering will bring together ministry leaders from parishes across our diocese.  It will be an opportunity to hear about the Respect Life goals and aspirations we have for the coming year and to make connections with community organizations that can be bridges to family wellness and health.  We look forward to hearing of the successes of ministry and what you have learned along the way that can help other parish teams.  Finally, it is an opportunity to gather resources that support your parish-based ministries.
