Pillars of Prayer - April 22nd

By Sr. M. Consolat... on April 17, 2008 - 3:13pm.

Mark your calendar for April 22nd!
St. Joseph is the man! And we are inviting you to join him in intercession for us here at the Catholic Youth Apostolate - Scouts, Sports and Youth Ministry! Will you make a commitment to pray for us, young people, and those who serve them in the Archdiocese? Is that a yes, I hear? Great! Thank you! Our ministry needs to be supported by prayer and that's why we have Pillars of Prayer.

Pope Benedict XVI - Youth Rally Pilgrimage

By Sr. M. Consolat... on April 15, 2008 - 5:19pm.

Luke Yamnitz, a freshman at DeSmet High School, continues to share his experience of the pilgrimage.  Read it and be inspired! 

We're back from New York!  What a blessed time it was to journey with young people to see our Holy Father.  There was much laughter, prayer, and bonding as we spent MANY hours on a bus together…probably more than we all anticipated!  It was worth the twists and turns to see Pope Benedict XVI!  Check out some photos and blogs.  Listening to the stories and experiences of the young people is quite edifying!  We thank you for your prayers!
