Apologize to you all! I just simply forgotten how to get in eblogger but I am back!

Wow September and October flew by! Now it is Thanksgiving time!

Our youth group went to Columbus, Ohio for NCYC - National Catholic Youth Conference last weekend and we were with 20,000 teenagers from all over USA! We were with 25 other deaf teens from New York, Philadelphia, Kansas City, Youngstown, what a blast! WE had fun,
prayed, went to mass, made new friends! We plan to go again to Kansas City, 2009!

Rome!

Rome? Yep, we are planning a group pilgrimage to Rome, Italy next year, June 2008! Why Rome? It is a world deaf catholic celebration fest in Rome! ICDA, International Catholic Deaf Association (USA) and ICF, International Catholic Foundation (England) are planning a 2 day at the Vatican to show the Pope and the catholic world that deaf people are here and we need deaf ministry in our deaf churches. Two days are reserved on June 25-26, 2008. We get an audience with the Pope, and then on June 26th, celebrating mass with Archbishop Kelly of Liverpool, England.

If you wish to fly out of Detroit, you can! June 23- July 1, 2008. It is a 8 day trip and cost is at $2,487.00 including breakfast and dinner daily and airfare, and hotel. Not a bad deal! check it out at :
