Special Olympics

Due to the generosity of our parishioners, we will again give $500 to the Special Olympics.   The mission of the Special Olympics is to provide year-round sports training and athletic competition in a variety of Olympic-type sports for children and adults with intellectual disabilities, giving them continuing opportunities to develop physical fitness, demonstrate courage, experience joy, and participate in a sharing of gifts, skills and friendship with their families, other Special Olympic athletes and the community. Founded in 1968, the Special Olympics strives to create a better world by fostering the acceptance and inclusion of all people.
