SMC FACS girls catered a dinner for the Bishop last Friday!
As of March 22, our Wichita Diocese received its fourth club charter for the newly formed Southeast Kansas Serra Club. The three other diocesan Serra clubs include two in Wichita and one in Reno County. Serrans are dedicated Catholics who pray for the increase and perseverance of vocations to the Priesthood and the Religious Life.
Twenty-nine Serra charter members, along with numerous Serrans from all across our diocese, attended the Charter Celebration Mass and Dinner in Pittsburg, Kansas last Friday evening. Bishop Kemme was the celebrant and Fr. Jeremy Huser of Cherokee Co. parishes serves as the Serra Club of SEK Chaplain.
Our St. Mary's Colgan Family & Consumer Sciences students prepared the banquet dinner for this event.
