Cathedral Book Club April Read

Our book for April 10 is something a little different. It’s not fiction, but instead a memoir entitled My Cousin the Saint by Justin Catanoso. It’s available as an ebook and in paperback, and used copies are available. I hope you’ll enjoy it and I look forward to seeing you next month.  ~Michael Cirone

Meet at 7 pm in the Formation Room on Second Floor of the Parish Office.
