Shining Hearts

Shining Hearts is open to any families with children up to 6th grade.  We get together monthly and create family time and meet other families.  The kids have enjoyed meeting other children and creating great friendships for the whole family.  We recently met at Sacred Heart for Family Fall Fun Day and the children had free play in the gym.  Some children with their parents enjoyed a game of dodgeball.  Watch for our next family event in November and come join us.  ​

Confirmation retreat Oct. 22 at St. Mary's Parish Center
