Thanks to Jack, for his patience and hard work, we have a Youth page!! I'd like to send out another thanks,
to all of you who have supported Youth (Teen) Ministry over the past year, Fr. Hoban, Sr. Mary John Albert and
everyone on the Parish Staff who kept encouraging me to continue. I would not have been able to do it without all
of you, and without God's grace we wouldn't be where we're at in the program! Most importantly, to the young people
who are committing themselves and have opened up their hearts to listen for God's voice and to follow him! All
of you are a great example for all of us to follow! May God Bless St Francis and all of us, as God continues to
unveil himself to all of us during our journey of faith!

great website. could you publish the daily mass and sunday mass schedule a couple of weeks ahead of time. that
way one can check to see if a mass for one of their loved one is coming , and make plans accordingly. sometimes
we forget when we have scheduled a Memorial Mass. just a thought. mary

Jack - great website! My mom and I sat next to you and your wife last night at Tetelestai. It was very nice
meeting both of you. I see you took photos after the show and got them on the site already. God bless you and the
parish of St. Francis de Sales. As a former cast member I know that the ministry of Tetelestai is very appreciative
of how they have been welcomed into the parish this weekend.

Hello, I would like to thank everyone for the recognition in recieving the Service Award at the Holy Name Society
Dinner. I never suspected anything!! I could have never provided this service if it wasn't for all of you allowing
me to particapate in this way. Without this Parish and the Holy Name Society (all of you) I would be doing nothing.
With all of you I have an outlet, a place to make a contribution to a community I can grow in, with lots of friends
and familys. THANK YOU! Sincerly, RJ

My stories of Catholic school start with the only year I attended St. Francis: 1965-66. I still tell stories
about Sr. Anne Joseph (1st grade) and Sr. Miriam Therese. I'm a public high school teacher and use their stare-down
techniques to control students. Thanks for your dedication, sisters! (Does anyone have info on either sister? Are
they still alive?)
