Text Box: THANK YOU The priest of the Congregation of the Holy Spirit who was here last weekend, Girard Kohler, C.S.Sp., extends his thanks to the parish for your generous response to his appeal on behalf of the Spiritans’ missionary activities. He is particularly appreciative of the personal kindness and of the conversations with so many of you. Be assured of the prayers of the Spiritans worldwide for you and your intentions. Likewise be assured of their need for place in your prayers for themselves and for their ministries with God’s little ones, the least and the lost and those left out.
