This Week: Who Is Celebrating!?



The Saint Miriam “Imperfect Spirituality” Club meets today at 12 Noon!
Join this active group of sojourners (both men and women) for a great discussion! You’re sure to enjoy a great conversation and make some new friends. All meetings are held in the Betsy and Walter Diener Room so coffee and a light snack and close by, too. No reservations required.
Sacred Singers and Franciscan Music Ensemble of Saint Miriam!
Do you enjoy singing and/or playing music in a loving and fun environment!? Join music director Charlie Masters, as we bring together both instrumentalists and vocalists of all ages and interests in a NEW Contemporary Music Ensemble. Specifically, the ensemble will share their ministry by performing together at one Sunday morning mass each season. Listening/part tracks are provided and rehearsals are conveniently scheduled. Again, all voices and instruments are encouraged to be a part of this exciting new music ministry. Please reach out to Charlie for additional details!

✞ Join us for an Elevation to Subdeacon!
AND…since Saint Miriam is having a table at Outfest Philly this year Maureen Bradley wanted to get a group together and help spread the love and acceptance of our church by having a group to give Free Mom Hugs. (Or dad hugs, kids hugs…) They are a nonprofit that does this at lots of gay pride events to offer acceptance to LGBTQ people who maybe don’t have the support of their family. Check out Freemomhugs.org and let Maureen know if you can help!
