FOOTPRINTS THROUGH LENT
Suicide is one of the most difficult issues that can affect a family. Many in our community know the horror of receiving this tragic news. Our speaker this week is Kathleen Kilroe. Kathleen's son Jamie died by suicide in October 2018. We are very grateful to her, and her family, for being willing to share her story at Mass. We pray for her, and for Jamie, and encourage everyone to come to hear her story and show our support.. These talks take place during Mass at 7:30 p.m. in the Church of the Assumption every Friday evening until April 12th.
