While we are away in the Holy Land please welcome Fr. Robert Blondell to St. Clare. Fr. Robert is a senior priest of our Archdiocese, who lives in Chesterfield, MI and is the brother of Tom Blondell of our parish. Fr. Robert will minister at St. Clare until Friday, October 27th. I am very grateful to him for his generous acceptance of my invitation to serve in my absence. We will pray for each of you at the holy sites and present the prayers and petitions you entrusted to us.  Please keep us in your prayers as well. This is our 90th Anniversary pilgrimage of thanksgiving, prayer, and gratitude for our parish and school. Stay tuned, pictures and updates from our trip will be posted on our parish Facebook page.
