REGIONAL NEWS Summer 2005

Region I: Pennsylvania

♦�

Friars of the Pennsylvania Region gathered at Saint Joseph�s Friary, Hollidaysburg, on May 2 to celebrate the feast of Saint Joseph the Worker.� Evening Prayer was celebrated, followed by soup and sandwiches and a wonderful evening of fraternity.� All the friars commented that it is good to gather, especially on special occasions, as an opportunity to enjoy the company of other friars from the region.

Region IV: Minnesota

♦� �The annual Summerfest celebration at Saint Bridget Church, Minneapolis,� was a great success.� John Kerr managed the publicity for the event. The theme, �Ten Years, Ten-Thousand Smiles,� was submitted by a parishioner as part of a contest. There were lots of smiles, particularly on the faces of the parishioners and neighborhood children during his half hour in the dunk tank!� The follow-up event to the parish festival is an ice cream social.� John and others from the parish will be walking the neighborhood with invitations.� They will also be inviting people to a town hall meeting on August 22 to discuss the Living Wage issue.� City Council members, state officials, and neighboring churches are already planning to be there.
