We had a wonderful Kick-Off Night last Wednesday for our 2026–27 Faith Formation and Youth Ministry year! 🎉

It was extra special to welcome our very own Bishop Dennis Walsh, who celebrated Mass with us and then joined our 6th–12th graders for pizza afterward. It was a beautiful evening filled with faith, fellowship, fun, and many blessings!
