Did you know the parish website includes a special section called Family Living? Go to www.saintclarechurch.org and click the “Family Living” icon at the bottom of the webpage for tips and tools to help your family integrate the faith into daily life. A new article will be posted on Aug. 3: Knowing the Church leads to knowing Christ by Archbishop Peter Sartain of the Archdiocese of Seattle.
