Halloween is just around the corner. The ancients believed that All Hallows Eve was a time when the veil between the physical and spirit worlds was particularly thin. What does the Church teach about angels, demons, ghosts, and hauntings?

Join us for a deeper dive into the world of spirits.

CALLING ALL COOKS...

The SAL Moms' Group is looking for volunteers to join their email list for the Meal Train Ministry (you do not have to be in Moms' Group to join the Meal Train Ministry). This ministry supports new parents in the parish by organizing meal drop-offs during the transition home from the hospital or when a new parent returns to work.

There is typically 1 meal train per month that requires 10-15 volunteers. New trains are emailed out, and sign up is done through mealtrain.com. Meals do not have to be homemade. Just taking meal planning and prep off the plate of these new parents can be a big help during those first intense weeks with a newborn!

Add your name to the Moms' Group Meal Train Ministry by clicking the button below to email Nicole Pannell.
