SENIOR MINISTRY LUNCH
Tues. July 16, 1:00 p.m.
All parishioners 55 and older are invited to join us for lunch, followed by a presentation about Julia Greeley She was declared a “Servant of God” under Pope Francis, and a new pope brings hope that Denver’s “Angel of Charity” will soon become a saint. Greeley continues on the path to sainthood as her cause remains under review at the Vatican. She joins four other African Americans being considered for sainthood. Born in the 1800s into slavery, Greeley dedicated her life to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and committed to serving the poor. Her works of charity put her on the path to beautification—a long and arduous process. Dr. Barbara Wilcots, retired vice president at Regis University and former English professor, served on the historical commission for the cause for canonization and will share more of Greeley’s life and discuss the beautification process. Cost of the brunch is $15. Call 303-758-8826 to RSVP by Fri. July 11.
