Report from Lorraine Maloney:
Everyone was very pleased with the well organized Retreat in Framingham.
We had 3 more professed after Benediction, including our Deacon.
Fr. Dubay was even better in person and very animated.
Everyone took a lot from his retreat & will go over the Psalms that he recommended for deep contemplation.
One of our members, Betty was the organist and singer and & I was one of the lectors.
