Faith Stories Continue
This Sunday parishioner Angela Nugent will share her unique faith journey. We each struggle with what it means to follow Christ; we each "Live God's Love" in different ways, some very public and some private. Faith Stories are a way to share our different faith journeys with fellow parishioners, and to get to know each other better. Are you called to tell your Faith Story? Contact: Joshua Daniel
Calling all Families
this Summer
St. Paul (a Flat-Stanley-like character) is going on another journey, this time to visit families throughout the Church in Corona (St. Columba's parish) and he'd like to stay with you! He will arrive at your home with a picture book about his famous letters and some ideas of how you might share your time in Corona with him and ideas for writing your own letter to the Church in Corona (advice, prayers, experiences of isolation). Each week, the kids who have hosted St. Paul will help lead a weekly meeting (Tuesdays, at 4:30 pm) to share letters and pictures of their time with him. Sign up here. Contact: Katie McGervey
