Al Barbarino Appearing at St. Francis of Assisi for Corpus Christi
Al will be accompanying the parish for the Corpus Christi procession immediately after the 12 Noon Mass.
Al Barbarino is a Lay Franciscan with the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal (the late Fr. Benedict Groeschel’s Community), and is a member of the Knights of Columbus. Throughout the years in this apostolate, he has recorded CDs/videos, and traveled around the world.
He speaks on our faith in a most practical, everyday level. Through all the support of his recordings, he helps the Franciscans at their homeless shelters, Croatian Relief International Outreach, and for the poor, wherever he sings. Al has worked in the New York City prisons for incarcerated youth as a counselor. He has many stories to share! Al’s recordings will be available after Mass.
Making Progress in the New Year
By now everyone who has visited the church has seen the wonderful job that was done to repair and restore the steps and slates at the entrance to the building.
It’s Time for the Souper Bowl
St. Francis of Assisi will once again participate in the nationwide Souper Bowl collection on Super Bowl weekend, February 12 and 13, to help tackle hunger!
