God is love, and love is what the Legion of Mary brings to the lonely and forgotten in our community. This ministry is centered around the Blessed Mother and her precious gift of the Holy Rosary. Our Legion is seeking new members – it is a faith-filled, rewarding commitment of only a few hours each week. Please join Legion members this Sunday, February 19, at 2:00 PM, in St. Anthony’s Social Hall to learn more about membership, ask any questions you have and enjoy some refreshments.

Would you like to learn something new while at the same time evangelizing others in the United States and overseas? Parishioner Tonya Anderson will lead a class on rosary making each of the Wednesdays during Lent (March 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29) at 6:30 PM, in the Mother Cabrini Room. All materials will be provided. The rosaries will be sent to areas of need to help grow their love and awareness of our Lord. We are also having a challenge with Assumption Catholic Church in Barnesville, MN, to see who can make the most, so we need all hands to learn! We hope you consider this beautiful way of spreading God’s love this Lent!

Adults $12, youth (grades 1-6) $6 and preschool FREE. We hope you come!

St. Monica is the patroness of: wayward children, abuse victims, those struggling with addiction, widows/widowers, and those in difficult marriages.

Bring a rosary and join our Legion of Mary in this powerful time of prayer!
