Youth Leaders' Meeting
Monday, August 21
6 p.m. - CCE Hall
We need teens & young adults who would like to join the Life Teen Youth Ministry Team.
A youth leader does not have to know everything about the bible or have all the answers. Your responsibility is to love teens where they are at and show them that they are loved by God by walking with them and building Christ-centered relationships with them.
PLEASE JOIN US! Please call the CCE office for more information: (956) 423-1765
Our sincere condolences to our parish secretary, Rosie Salinas, whose husband Leopoldo Salinas passed away Thursday, August 17.
May perpetual light shine upon him. May he rest in peace.
