Saint Paul Catholic Parish, Athens

The Knights of Columbus have donated a Blessed Father Michael McGivney relic for our reliquary.  The relic has been placed in the reliquary along with the other relics and a new light that illuminates the contents. Light a candle and pray to Father McGivney and all the other saint relics we have there. It is truly a blessing for our parish! Also see the movie about Father McGivney on the FORMED app.

If you know anyone graduating high school or college this year, and would like for them to be honored at our Graduate Mass, please let the office know.
