As has been our parish practice
since the year 2000, someone from our parish makes a pilgrimage during
January. This time it was Joe LaFleche who journeyed with a
group from Holy Angels Parish in Upton. In addition,
while there, a celebration was held for Connie Barna who had
resigned as diocesan director of the Apostolate. These are
pictures Joe took on his trip
