     Anniversary Pilgrimage to Sagrada Familia Begins!
 
 

The Archdiocese of Milwaukee is celebrating its 25th year of sisterhood with Sagrada Familia Parish in the Dominican Republic! The celebration begins this October and will continue until October of 2007.

The members of the 25th Anniversary Journey are

Archbishop Timothy Dolan

The delegation will travel throughout the Parish, learning about and from our brothers and sisters in the Dominican Republic.

On Sunday, October 29, they will come together with the parish to celebrate the Holy Eucharist, and together will pray a special prayer written by the parish pastors. (Click on the PDF file below to see the bilingual prayer card or click here to order the 25th Anniversary Prayer Card)
