Dear Parishioners,

As you've probably heard by now, our parish is taking a group of teens to Life Teen's Camp Hidden Lake this summer! Last year, the eight teens that traveled to Life Teen's Camp Covecrest were so inspired by the experience that we reserved twice as many spots for this year. In less than two weeks, our parish is sending fifteen teens and three chaperones to camp in Georgia!

In order to get there, though, we need your help! Although each camper is paying for the cost of the camp itself, the parish is subsidizing the cost of travel. With increased fuel prices, we need to raise just over $3,000 to cover our cost for the bus to and from Georgia. As you may have heard at Mass already, we'll be dedicating the Second Collection next Sunday, June 19, to help offset our travel expenses. Please give as generously as you can! If you prefer to donate online, you can visit https://www.saintaloysiuschurch.org/youth-ministry and donate this week or next.

Thank you so much for helping to reach the next generation with the truth and beauty of Jesus Christ and the Catholic Church!

God Bless,
Leonard Wathen

Director of Religious Education & Youth Ministry
