Bulletin or Flocknote Quote:

– The Feast Day of St Junipero Serra is a special day set apart to honor an early American Missionary. Let us reflect on the evangelization and remarkable journey St Serra made to establish over 19 mission churches along the western coast of North America. This nationwide recognition of St Junipero Serra was ensconced by Pope Francis to celebrate the education and conversion of Native Americans.
