Faith-Sharing & Scripture Group Started in 1993, this faith-sharing group meets weekly year-round on Monday mornings after the 9:00 AM Mass in the downstairs hall Youth Room, reads the Scriptures for the upcoming Sunday, and then discusses how those readings impact their daily lives. New members and drop-ins are always most welcome. CONTACT: Jeanne Tarrant, 847-9480, jmtarrant@optonline.net
