Saint Paul Parish is a Franciscan Family of Faith so it is fitting that we kick off the Religious Ed school year highlighting this saint. Here are the October options. We ask that you sign up for the options that you choose.

BLESSING OF THE PETS - SUNDAY OCT. 4 AT 2 PM. REGISTRATION CLOSED.

SAINT FRANCIS HOLY WATER FONT - One of the items in your Family Faith tote bag is a Saint Francis holy water font and a bottle of holy water. Affix the font near your front door, near a child's bedroom door or at another frequented entrance of your home. Then as a family remember to bless yourselves as you enter or leave the home or room. It is a reminder of our baptism and a great way for kids to practice blessing themselves. Saint Francis Font Sign Up.

GRACE BEFORE MEALS PLEDGE - If it's not already part of your family prayer tradition, commit to saying this simple prayer as a family before dinner. Please let us know you're doing so by signing up with this GRACE SIGN UP GENIUS.
