"The value of persistent prayer is not that God will hear us, but that we will finally hear God.”

The next Family Faith Formation gathering is this Sunday, January 22 at 9:15 am at St. James, Chatham.

We are looking for last year’s palms for our February Family Faith formation gatherings.  If you have some at home, please drop off in the designated containers at your Parish.  Thank you!
