Prayer Intention
As we pray together each day at 3pm, join us to pray for our SPCS School Advisory Council.
Diocesan Ministry Appeal (DMA)
We benefit from God’s great love for us, and as Christ’s followers, we are called to share this good fortune with others, for “if God so loved us, we also must love one another” (1 John 4:11). One way we can do this is to support those programs and initiatives that bring God’s incredible love to others. Please consider supporting the Diocesan Ministry Appeal and pray for its success.
