The Mario Henry Forget Memorial Scholarship is given to those graduates of our parish who have remained in active ministry here at Good Shepherd through their senior year of high school. Mario was an altar server and an active youth leader in our Vacation Bible School. Mario died in 2003 as the result of a tragic accident. This scholarship was established in 2013 to honor his memory and to assist in some small way those graduates who have been faithful to serving our parish community.
Congratulations to the 42 people that have been at our two retreats! Everyone has come away with a deepened faith and a new relationship with Jesus Christ. The retreat Team was very happy to witness the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon these. The beauty of Light of the World is that it doesn’t just end; but continues after the weekend. Our third retreat is scheduled for October 18-23, 2019. We hope you will be touched by the Holy Spirit to consider this for yourself, so that you too may come away refreshed and joyous. Information regarding our third retreat will appear in the late summer bulletins. and on posters to be displayed at St. Augustine and Good Shepherd. Thanks and God Bless.
