Over the Thanksgiving weekend about a dozen recently confirmed youth spent time at church creating a display about Our Lady of Gaudalupe. Here are some pictures of their activities and the end project as well as an explanation of the symbolism. In addition to creating the OLG display the youth also created Christmas cards for shut-ins.
Parishioners involved in these ministries also help establish and recommend goals and objective annually to the parish pastoral council that flow from the pastoral plan of the parish.
