Do you know someone with a disability or are you caring for someone with a disability? If so, the upcoming Disability Awareness Conference may be just for you. 

Since January 2012, the Most Rev. Joseph R. Cistone, Bishop of Saginaw, has traveled to different churches throughout the diocese to lead Holy Hours before the Blessed Sacrament. You are invited to join him in praying for the guidance of the Holy Spirit as we strive to do God’s will in our local Church.

All are invited to the Bishop Murphy Award reception and program to honor Bishop Murphy Award recipients Sister Elaine Raymond, MSSp and Charles Wargel. This is also a great opportunity to enjoy time with like-minded members of the faith community. Heavy hors d'oeuveres, beverages and desserts will be served. Two powerful video stories featuring the award winners will also be unveiled at the event. Dress will be business attire.

Please RSVP by Aug. 1
