Take An Ornament! Be an angel. If you are interested in helping give a Christmas gift to one of our friends at the Austin State School please pick up an ornament in the Lobby and return the gift by December 7th. For some of the residents this will be the only gift they receive. Thanks for making their holidays special. RCIA Rite of Welcome We are happy to welcome nine individuals who celebrated the Rite of Welcome on Sunday, November 9. All nine of them are candidates - already baptized, and seeking full communion in the Catholic Church. They are: Natalie Carnine, Kris Carter, Victor Chatman, Whitney Douglas, Danielle Handsaker, Bryan Hanus, Bobby Jenkins, Rachel Vallejo, and Dung To Young. We pray that they grow closer to Christ during their period of formation and see in us reasons to be Catholic Christians.
