More new Catholics! This weekend we celebrated the Reception into Full Communion of the Catholic Church with Todd Blubaugh and Jeremy Zumbach (centered in front in picture below) . As they continue to grow in faith and participation in parish life, we encourage all parishioners to keep them in prayer and to warmly welcome them as fellow members of our Catholic family. May God continue to bless them abundantly as they live out their faith in the Church.
