Youth Event: The Inter-Apostolic Youth Conference, hosted at our parish on September 7, ended on a high note, leaving participants with a profound sense of fulfillment. Over 30 of our own youth members took part in this inspiring event, which focused on spiritual growth, leadership development, and building a strong sense of community.
Both youth leaders and participants left the conference with renewed faith and a stronger commitment to making a positive impact in their communities. To keep this momentum going, we invite you to join us for another meaningful Youth Ministry event on Saturday, October 26, at 2:30 p.m., in the Columbus Room at Precious Blood Parish.

God Bless,
Mr. Heah and Mrs. Krammer
