Women of St. Raphael: Terrific Two!

Posted by Adrienne

Usually turning two means something 'terrible' - tantrums, mayhem, and 'no, no, no!!'

Well not this time...

Our little blog is turning two years old this month!

And we think that's terrific!

Over the years, we've posted hundreds of articles, had thousands of page views and shared many priceless little jewels of friendship and our beautiful Catholic faith.

Come celebrate with us Friday, Feburary 1st after 9am Mass in the Parish Library at our First Friday Coffee in honor of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Also, keep an eye on the blog this month for special birthday presents and guest blog posts as part of our celebration!
