Conversations with My Molester:  A Journey of Faith

Don’t miss this powerful and moving drama written and acted by Michael Mack, who is a victim and survivor of sexual abuse.  It will take place on Saturday, September 24 at 6:30PM in St. Maria Goretti Church Hall.  Michael is a practicing Catholic and this stage performance has been critically acclaimed In New York and Boston among other places.  Bring a guest with you, perhaps someone who has suffered in some way from the Church abuse crisis the last decade or so.  This event is supported by the Archdiocesan Office of Pastoral Support and Outreach, and a free-will offering will be gratefully appreciated. 

Blessings to all of you in the week ahead!
