Alive in Christ! Advent Mission 2023

Our Advent mission was a three-day opportunity for parishioners and guests of all ages to help deepen our personal connection to Christ and for each of us to discover how we can best share Jesus with others. 

Our speaker, Josh Danis, shared ways for us to find more peace, joy and confidence in God's will for our lives. Josh is director of parish engagement for Hallow, the Catholic app.
