Peruvians on Way to Oklahoma


Here is a photo of Fr. Joe, Ginet, and Freddy having a late meal before their overnight flight from Lima to the USA. When traveling this route, one gets to know the Lima airport very well because of the long layovers.

They will arrive in OKC about noon today and begin a couple week stay visiting the parishes of St. Monica (31st), St. John the Baptist (17th), and Christ the King (24th). They will be at all the Masses on the indicated weekends.

August 30 Fiesta

The Peru Ministry Subcommittee has been diligently working on the fiesta (party) for when Fr. Joe, Ginet, and Freddy will be at St. Monica.

Fr. Uhen will celebrate and preach the 5:30 p.m., Saturday Mass. The fiesta begins immediately after Mass at about 6:30. The Knights of Columbus is cooking a free meal for everyone who comes and EVERYONE is invited.

There will be time to talk with our Peruvian visitors. We will dance to music provided by D.J. Robert O'Connor from St. Monica.

There will be an optional live and silent auction. As of August 1 we have 40 donations to auction off.

The Subcommittee has big plans. Now we need YOU to be successful! Hope you can make it.
