Service Day with the Poor Clare Sisters - Oct 15, 2016
On Saturday, October 15th our Youth Group is going to engage in a day of service on behalf of the Poor Clare monastery in Barhamsville, VA. The day will begin with a tour of the monastery, mass, then a Q&A with the sisters. After that's we'll head outside and help them tend the grounds - clearing brush, raking leaves, removing stumps, etc. We hope you'll join us for this chance to meet and serve an incredible group of holy women!
