Yusef Mgeni will be sharing his history and experience of the Black Catholic community in St. Paul and Minneapolis. Yusef, a lifetime Rondo resident, NAACP leader, and Director of the Office of Educational Equity for the St. Paul Public Schools will discuss Catholicism and racial reckoning, are we making any progress? Join us in the Church Hall following the 10:00 a.m. mass.

Please join us as we develop action plans for this year’s goals: increase parish involvement in criminal justice initiatives; increase involvement in environmental justice issues and foster Rondo community connections. If you would like to attend, please contact Everlyn Wentzlaff, Committee Chair, and she will send you a Zoom meeting link.

This year’s book discussion series starts with Recitatif by Toni Morrison. Written in 1980, this is a beautiful, arresting short story about race and the relationships that shape us through life. Please join us for a Virtual Book Discussion on Zoom from 6:30 pm-8:00 pm. Register here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/book-discussion-recitatif-by-toni-morrison-tickets-50375412113
