Just a note of thanks for your collaboration in the training sessions for ARISE Season Ii just completed. When we finally arrived at our destinations, Sr. Marie and I were happy to be so generously received and welcomed into your parishes. It was wonderful to hear the success stories from Season I and to prepare for the upcoming Season Ii small community groups during Lent. The Holy Spirit is truly at work in our diocese.
Following are the numbers of participants per site:
January 12, 2014 St. Andrew the Apostle 33 + 1 priest
January 12, 2014 Holy Redeemer 26 + 3 priests
