New Mattresses for Saint Aloysius’ Minor Seminary
Saint Aloysius’ Minor Seminary is a boarding school. This means that the students live on campus where they study and eat.

Mother Teresa of Calcutta once said: “There are no great things, only small things with great love,” [because] “love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand.”

Happy and Prosperous New Year 2023
Dear friends,
Our dear Pope emeritus, Benedict XVI, saw the last day of the year 2022 before being called back to the Father on December 31, 2022, at 9:34 a.m. We pray for the repose of his soul while trying to keep to his traditional Church stance and teachings to avoid the influx of secularism that could destroy our Catholic faith.
