Mission Co-Op Sunday

2nd Collection on August 19/20

THE SISTERS OF MARY MORNING STAR in SAIGON

The Sisters of Maria Stella Matutina, a monastic community desiring to live a missionary and contemplative life in the heart of the Church, are seeking to make a foundation in the Lam Dong province, where they hope to build a convent to carry out their work.

They are asking for our assistance to help them raise funds to build their convent in the highlands of Vietnam. The weekend of August 19/20, the parish will present a short film about their mission.
