ARISE SMALL FAITH SHARING GROUPS will once again be established for Season Five of Arise, but not during the Lenten Season. Small Faith Sharing Group will meet during the Easter Season beginning the weeks of April 11, 18, 25, May 2, May 9 and May 16. We will have Sign up during the First and Second weeks of Lent to allow us sufficient time to order materials.
WE ARE SEEKING SMALL GROUP LEADERS If you would like to volunteer for this ministry, please contact Sr. Linda as soon as possible to set you day of the week and the time so that sign up sheets can be prepared for sign up during the Lenten Season.
Doing our Small Groups during the Easter Season allows us to have more time for people to get their vaccine and to hopefully secure the safety of participants.
We will celebrate the Closing of Arise Together in Christ at an Outdoor Mass at the Shrine of Our Lady of the Alleghenies at 7:00 p.m. on June 6. Please mark this date on your calendars and plan to attend. Also, please pray for good weather.
