Family Matters Newsletter: The July edition is available by link to the Archdiocesan website at :https://dbqarch.org/family-matters-newsletter and provides information on ways to learn and live the Catholic Faith.

Did you know that there’s an APP for that? Pray: The Catholic Novena App is available for IOS or Android phones. https://catholicnovenaapp.com/ A novena is a traditional Catholic form of prayer where you ask our Lord to answer a specific need or prayer request over a period of nine days, typically through the intercession of a saint. So you are asking for the saint’s prayers each day for the specific intention. You can learn more on this link on the Archdiocesan website.
