Happy Monday, YAMily! 🔆
It was wonderful spending time with you all this past week. On Wednesday we gave a warm welcome to a panel of friends from the Newman Center / CalTech, who all attended the National Eucharistic Congress earlier this summer. They shared photos, stories, and faith-filled moments from that impressive gathering of Catholics from around the nation.
Also, on Sunday, a group of us braved the heat wave and ran the Santa Monica Classic 10K race. You will most likely find us hanging out for a day or two in the closest ice bath or walk-in freezer to return ourselves back to normalcy. 🔆
As we continue our Wednesday evening get-togethers, here's how you can get plugged in this week...
This Wed. 9/11 @ 7pm in the ABVM Community Center (651 N. Sierra Madre Blvd. Pasadena, CA 91107), we will be hosting a casual fellowship night. It's been a very busy summer for many of us, and sometimes we just need to slow down and be present for one another, to catch up on life, faith, and more. There will be ice breakers and other fun activities designed to get us talking! The evening will begin with snacks at 7pm, and the fellowship will start around 7.30pm.
