Join us on Saturday, Sept. 30, from 3:30 to 4:30 pm for the success of the Universal Synod. There will be a retreat for all Synod attendees over the weekend. Join us to learn more about the process and to pray for the Synod’s success, which opens in Rome on Oct. 2nd. Join us at the school cafeteria as we celebrate this memorable event.
