St. Elizabeth Ann Seton will be holding a Memorial Service for the Unborn on Saturday, September 12th at 9:30am. We will pray the Stations of the Cross in church and conclude with prayers outside at the Memorial Statue in front of the church. Please bring a flower to place at the base of statue during the service.

Saturday, September 12th at 10:00am If you have lost a loved one, no one else has your pain, your grief, and your feeling of loss. This ministry is open to anyone who has lost a loved one and would find comfort in being with others who have also lost a loved one. Some of the people in the room may have traveled the same path as you. We listen, we share, we care and in sharing God’s love, we help!
