Please join Knights Council 8172 in congratulating the Missionary Sisters of the Holy Family as our November Parishioners of the Month! We are so very blessed to have the Missionary Sisters of the Holy Family as members of our parish. They brighten every Mass and liturgical function with their grace, prayerful demeanor and their commitment to consecrated life. We see them enthusiastically serving as Extraordinary Ministers, singing in the choir and joining us in the much broader support of our parish. It is also important to recognize their service in support of the General Secretariat of the Franciscan Missions, as well as their work at the Aurora Medical Center in Burlington. Please thank them for their presence with us, their service to God’s people, and for helping make St Thomas a welcoming community.
