Mass Gathers Families, Friends Of Those With Disabilities

Jenny Catanzaro reads the prayerful petitions during the Faith and Sharing Mass for persons with disabilities held at St. Jude the Apostle Church, Atlanta. The archdiocesan-wide Mass, followed by a potluck dinner, is a twice yearly gathering for families of those with disabilities. St. Jude was the original parish for much of the ministry in the archdiocese. In 2002 the archdiocese established an office for the ministry.
