Question of the Week

For adults: When recently did God call you to do something that was difficult?

For young adults: Following Jesus can mean leaving some things behind. What do you need to let go of to follow Jesus more fully in your life?

For children: What is one way that you can follow Jesus?

Our Military                                                          ...Names of Those Serving

It has been the policy of St. Al's to offer our parish community an opportunity to pray for those parish members and their relatives who are serving in the military.  The names of those serving our country are listed in the bulletin, and in some cases pictures are also on display in the Narthex.  In our efforts to keep the list current, we ask that you review the list and notify the rectory, 255-7452, of any changes.  We appreciate your assistance so that we may continue to honor and pray for those currently serving in the military. Many of our military have called and thanked us for our continued prayers.  They couldn’t have done it without the support of our parish and families.
