Our Parish Family
New Parish Picture Directory! Valerie Newell is putting together the new directory of the St. Michael’s family. It’s not too late to be included! Just send your photo to Patti 270-302-2782 or patti@smsebree.org. The Directory will have photos from the 40 years of parish life and the Anniversary celebration. We’ll have an order form ready next week. The cost will be somewhere between $10-$15 depending on how many people order them.
Lots of great, new CDs available! Check out our display for dynamic talks by Catholic presenters for only a suggested donation of $3 each. Titles like “What’s So Great about Being Catholic?” “Meet Your Mother” “Prove it, God…and He did!” “Religionless Spirituality: Why we need the Church” and “I’m Not Being Fed”. Consider them as Christmas gifts.
