INQUIRY SESSIONS will be on Tuesday, January 15th, or Thursday, January 17th, at 7 pm at St. Mary's Church Hall (steps going down from the Linn Street side of the church) or Sunday, January 20th, at 7 pm in O'Keefe Hall at the Newman Catholic Student Center. Inquiry Sessions are for those interested in finding out more about the Catholic Faith or to become Catholic or to prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation.
