for Evangelization and Faith Formation. Come and be "Full-Filled" on February 24-26 at the
Jumonville Retreat and Conference Center. The retreat will empower teens to make tough decisions about important topics and to ask difficult questions as they
journey to know Christ in their lives. Register now with the Parish Office. The deadline to register is February 8.
Girl Scout Spirit Day
The Diocesan Catholic Committee on Scouting for Girls will host
a "Mary, Queen of the Living Rosary" Spirit Day for all Girl Scouts in grades 2-12 on Saturday, March 24 at Mount St. Macrina in Uniontown. The day begins with
registration at 8:30 AM and concludes with the celebration of Mass at 4:00 PM (fulfills the Sunday obligation). Learn about Mary and the Rosary, how to make a rosary along
with other activities. An outdoor "Living Rosary" (weather permitting) will take place before Mass. Participants will work towards their Rosary Patch. Early bird
registration fee is $18 through March 2; cost is $20 after March 2. The cost includes continental breakfast, lunch, crafts, program and patch. Although this is a Catholic
program, non-Catholics and non-Scouts may also participate. Registration forms are available by contacting Glenda Sekerchak

Gathering of Catholic Men
Please join other men on Saturday, April 14 at the A. J. Palumbo Center at Duquesne University for the 7th Annual Gathering of Catholic Men.
Whether you are a grandfather, father, single man or son, whatever your level of faith or spiritual fitness, come and see how your life can be changed! Bring a friend and enjoy
six dynamic speakers as they help direct your thoughts and energy toward fostering a stronger relationship with God, family, friends, and co-workers. They will point the way toward what it means to
"Live the Eucharist in Today's America."
For more information, please contact the Parish Office.
