Week at a Glance 10/2-10/6 Finding of the Relics of St.John

Hello and welcome to the new week!

Welcome to an exciting and promising week ahead! This weekend holds special significance as we came together to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the finding of the relics of Saint John of Shanghai and San Francisco. Saint John was a revered figure known for his holiness and spiritual guidance, and the discovery of his relics has been a source of inspiration, blessings, and miracles for many in our community. This Feastday provides an opportunity to reflect on his enduring legacy and the profound impact his presence continues to have.
