Find out why you should never get married. Come and get your dish towel.

If you are alive
If you are male or female
If you are young or old or somewhere in between
If you are a bishop, priest, deacon, sister, brother, or lay minister
If you are married, divorced, widowed or single
If you said yes to your vocation or are still wondering what it is
You need to be in Church Wednesday night

We celebrate the Eucharist with an extended homily to end our Parish Mission. Fellowship follows in Cana Hall.
