Hello, Grandparents! It’s been a while since our last Generations (Grandparenting) meeting. We know we have had a lot more babies and added new grandparents to our ranks since then!

Keep Reading On Sunday, May 2, we focused on some of the last words that Jesus spoke before he was crucified. There, in the upper room, he said to his disciples, “If you love me, you will keep my Commandments.” As our Lord faced his own impending death, it’s clear that one of his primary concerns was that we, his followers, would hold fast to his commandments. But what does this ...
