Men’s Retreat We want to invite all men of the parish to join us for the annual St. Cronan's Men's Retreat. The retreat will be held at the Griesedieck farm once again this year on the weekend of March 21 - 23. Please come to all or part of the retreat. This year the Griesedieck family is inviting each of us who come out to the retreat to make a contribution of $75 which helps support the upkeep of the farm. This year we will be reflecting on how we are doing and how the Gospel is inviting us to respond to these times we are living in. Please contact me if you have any questions and let me know if you can attend and whether you are coming out for all or part of the weekend. Much peace! Rocky Sieben rockysieben@sbcglobal.net

The Assembly is an opportunity for the St. Cronan community to learn more about Johnny's background and perspective on the role, share input on their expectations and hopes for the CLC position, and ask questions about the transition to lay leadership. The Assembly will be held in the Coffee & Donuts room. To contribute to the potluck, please contact the church office 314-289-9384.
Black History Tours: STL Black History Tours are planned for these dates for spring of 2025. Please advertise this in your network.

As in the past, the procedure to sign-up is to send tour date, the name, email address, and phone number to me. It is fine with me if you want to hold a block of seats for your group and you can serve as the liaison to your group.
The tour will be the same as previous. The group will meet at St Cronan Catholic Church at 9:30 AM and bus will leave around 10 AM and return to St Cronan at 1 PM. There will be an optional brown bag lunch and discussion following, for those interested.
