Summer Prayer Buckets

While Sunday School is on vacation, use our Summer Prayer Bucket to stay connected with God throughout the 12 weeks of summer no matter where you are! Buckets are filled with 12 fun items that your children will use to explore a new way to pray. Buckets are $12 each (one per family, please) and will be available for pickup in the lobby of the Parish Life Building beginning May 15.
