Baseball and Shakespeare...A New Tradition?                  SEAS FELLOWSHIP
Every July, with the exception of 2020, of course, our
parish attends the Utah Shakespeare Festival. We jump in
a bus and head up to Cedar City for the day to enjoy the
arts and the camaraderie of our fellow parishioners. As
you can see from the pictures below, this past July 21 was
no exception. With Fr. Shawn and Fr. Tom leading the
way, it was an exceptional day!

SEAS FELLOWSHIP   And There’s More...
                  This year, our Pastoral Associate of Family & Parish Life
                  Maureen Sisto, added another fun outing to the July
                  calendar—a day at the Las Vegas Ballpark! SEAS was
                  well represented, 106 strong, as we watched the LV
                  Aviators defeat the El Paso Chihuahuas on Friday, July
                  16. We hope more of our fellow parishioners and
                  families will join us at future events!
