SAVE THE DATE - It’s time once again for our annual St. Joan of Arc - Arm in Arm Weekend, November 13-14. The event will be live at St. Joan of Arc Saturday, November 13, at the 5:00 Mass, and Sunday, November 14, at the 9:00 and 11:00 Masses. We will also have the event available for viewing online on our AIAIA website as well as the SJA website.

This year, I will be sharing a story about two amazing young adults who are living testament that our efforts around education are successful. Our long-term partnership with the FLY (Fun Learning for Youth) Program, a teen mentoring initiative, is definitely opening doors and lighting up all types of opportunities for young adults.

I thank you for all your past efforts in strengthening this partnership. I will also be giving an update as to the pressing need to support our Food Distribution program and the ongoing challenges of COVID-19. I am honored to be joined by our AIAIA Board member T Mychael Rambo, who will share his wonderful gift of song.
