Totus Tuus
A week-long Catholic parish mission for young parishioners, is coming to Saints Peter and Paul this summer from July 11 to July 18, 2015.  This is a program, led by a diocesan trained team of college students, designed to help our young people to develop a closer relationship with Jesus through learning, playing, and worship opportunities.  The topics for instruction focus this summer will be Virtues and Beatitudes and the Sorrowful Mystery of the Rosary.

You may remember that this same program was conducted most successfully in our parish in the summer of 2014. We anticipate another successful program this summer and solicit the help of every member of our parish to make it so.  Our present effort is to raise funds in support of this program through the sale of Braided Breads and Cookies. The Parish team will be selling these items after this weekend’s masses and we ask that you treat yourselves to truly wonderful bakery by taking some home. This fund raiser is well on the way to covering expenses for this Totus Tuus program. Please help us to take it over the top. If you miss this sale at mass this weekend, please contact Kimberly Zagorski at the Parish office 345.4343 ext. 302.   Thank you. The Saints Peter and Paul Totus Tuus Team.
