We dedicated a portrait of Sister Thea Bowman. It was painted by our own parishioner Margaret Rittenhouse. Sister Thea is now “Servant of God” and her cause to Sainthood is official. Sister Thea Bowman’s life was always one of Gospel joy, enduring faith, and persevering prayer even in the midst of racial prejudice, cultural insensitivity, and debilitating illness. Join us for Mass on Sundays, 8:30 & 10 am. You can see the portrait and learn about Sister Thea’s amazing life.
