4 Rejoice In Hope Youth Center On behalf of those who benefit from the services of Diocesan Youth Ministry, we would like to express our deepest gratitude for the generosity extended by the families of St. Clare Church. Your recent donation of $2,073. will be of great assistance in our ministry to the youth. With the help of your financial support, we are able to continue in this critical ministry. Sincerely, Patricia Kane Director Fr. Ken and The St. Clare Hospitality Ministry will present a film entitled Paul, Apostle of Christ Wednesday, August 29, at 6:30 PM in the Parish Center Risking his life, Luke ventures to Rome to visit Paul -- the apostle who's bound in chains and held captive in Nero's darkest and bleakest prison cell. Haunted by the shadows of his past misdeeds, Paul wonders if he's been forgotten as he awaits his grisly execution. Before Paul's death, Luke resolves to write another book that details the birth of what will come to be known as the church. This movie is 1 hour 48 minutes in length. All are welcome.
