"7 Sisters" A Prayer Program

Our parish has a special program that focuses on prayers for our pastor. It is the 7 Sisters Apostolate. Each volunteer "sister" prays, one day each week, for just one hour, for Father Deziel. Due to a move outside our area, we are looking for a Saturday prayer sister. We also are seeking a substitute, to occasionally help when needs arise. Your prayer hour can be done at home or at church, at an hour that works for you!

For detailed information: https://sevensistersapostolate.org One hour of prayer, every day, is a great blessing for our pastor. Please join us and bless Father Deziel! Contact Mollie Tobias to volunteer, or for additional information at: Mollie@SaintJosephsParish.org.
