It is fast approaching that time of the year that our nation gathers to recognize the things in life that rise to the level of our gratitude. The annual Thanksgiving Community Service this year will again be on the Sunday before Thanksgiving, Nov. 18th, at 3:00 P.M.The village of Round Lake Beach has graciously consented to allowing us to use their new Cultural & Civic Center on Hook Drive. We anticipate a meaningful service that is right and fitting for a nation that has as its motto, "In God We Trust". Chaplain Gerald Felder of the Great Lakes Naval Base will be our featured speaker.
We are excited to have our newest clergy in the community, Father Tim O'Malley, participating. The St. Joseph's Hispanic Choir will bring special music. Ricky Bueno, a former gang member of one of the Round Lake gangs who has served time in prison, has been active in Christian ministry to gangs for the past several years and will share of his outreach to teens and at-risk youth in this area, as our offering for the service will be given to Ricky's work. Please consider this a personal invitation to you and your family.
