We Thank John & Malissa Souza in this month of gratitude, for their outstanding, generous, wise and zealous leadership of the MI Family Village from its beginning. This year they decided to step down and into the children’s program and mentoring of leaders who may need help. May Our Lady richly reward you both for all you did for the MI Families of St. Joseph’s!!

During the month dedicated to the Most Holy Rosary and the Respect for Life, we dispensed our annual rosary packets to approximately 300 school children and celebrated our 10th pro-life prayer service in the Diocese of Salt Lake City. Through the use of materials from USCCB Respect Life Liturgical Guides, this year's "A Holy Hour for Life" was dedicated to Blessed John Paul II and occurred on both the anniversary of his pontificate and Kolbe's founding of the MI on October 16th. In November we will finish our book study on A Man for Others, which was compiled by the FKM/FKVIs. This book became part of our parish's book store/gift shop during our study.
