We have a wonderful community of Catholic women committed to fostering friendship, offering prayer for the needs of our community and the world, support for each other, and building a deeper relationship with Jesus. This ministry is open to any woman representing various ages and stages of life. The facilitators are parishioners, like yourselves, looking to connect and grow with others and Christ – together, sharing our lives and faith journey. You are most welcome to join as your schedule allows. We meet every Wednesday morning beginning on September 18th.

Please take one baby bottle and fill it with your spare coins (cash or checks are also much appreciated). Checks should be made out to RI Right to Life. Please return the bottles to church the weekend of October 6th. Collection bins will be located at the entrances of the church and chapel. Your generosity will help Right to Life Services to provide pregnancy tests, ultrasounds and support Maternity Hope Chest which services 300 mothers and families each month who have courageously chosen life!!

We will be celebrating the feast day of our patron saint with a Triduum—a period of three days of prayer and celebration. Beginning on Wednesday, October 2 and running

will incorporate evening prayer. Fr. Joe Upton will give a talk on Wednesday, October 2 and Fr. Tim Reilly will give a talk on Thursday, October 3. On Friday, October 4, Fr. Ranallo will celebrate Mass. All are welcome to join us in praying to our patron saint!

Bring your dogs, cats, hamsters, gerbils, birds, fish, ferrets, chickens, turtles, etc. for a special St. Francis blessing by the statue of our patron saint.
