Summer Mission Week 2010
"Home is Where the Heart Is"

 


Fifty youth group and adult parishioners participated in our fourth annual mission week from June 21-25. The success of the mission was due to the active participants, drivers, meal providers, music providers, prayer warriors, financial donors, local donations, and the leadership of Lesley Duggan and Charlotte Boemker. Thanks to everyone for their support!
