On behalf of all of the volunteer catechists and our SPRED Friends, I would like to take this opportunity to thank the parishioners of Queen of Angels/St. Matthias parish for their wonderful generosity in response to the Tootsie Roll Drive of the Knights of Columbus. Because of your generosity we will be able to maintain and improve our SPRED meeting space housed at the parish office center at 4412 N. Western Ave.
As a result of the challenges of Covid, we will be reimagining our lovely meeting space to adapt to the times. We are reworking our groups in order to be able to provide a place and a partner for all of our young adult and adult Friends. Another challenge that faces us now is the recruitment of more volunteers to fill the spaces of catechists who have decided to retire – all who have offered multiple years of dedication to the SPRED ministry. And so … we are on a determined search for new and younger men & woman to step into the shoes of theses wonderful people to bring new life to our SPRED communities. Our Friends rely on a personal relationship – a partner to walk with them in faith though a life giving process which offers a place of peace, hope and love. We all need this. We all need to walk hand in hand in faith and fellowship to find the good in life – in one another. To discover over and over again Joy in Life.
