    Comment: St Raphs is a great church. The youth group for kids is great. I Have been going there since 6th grade and now I'm in 9th grade at Cooper High School. I find that St Raphs helps to keep my Faith alive during high school. So I think you should send your kids to youth room! Its a great place! God bless!

    Comment: My family joined St Raphael's in 1951. Our first Christmas mass was out at Ryan Lake in an old pavillion. I was only 8 at the time but it left a very vivid memory. Our whole family went to St Raphael's and we are in the corner stone of the school. I remember Father Fenlon very well.

    Comment: I'm bummed . . . I attended St. Raphael's school from `53 -`62 and was looking forward to the reunion in August. I should have paid more attention to which weekend in August. I missed it. It would have been great to see some of the people I knew 40 years ago. I wonder if Sister Gabriel was there? - Maybe in spirit. She was something else! Hi to Pat Fahy!

    Comment: Just for fun I typed my name into Google and did a search. Up popped your site as having my name in it. Upon looking, I found that a Herbert and Florence Habermann had donated to the Easter flowers. This you'll never believe. My husband, George, and I are devout Catholics and are members of St. Andrew the Apostle Catholic Church, Norton, OH. I work for the pastor. Well, all I can say is, "Yea to the Habermanns. They're keeping the Faith." (I, also, teach PSR. My husband is a lector, eucharistic minister, and an usher.) I loved reading your bulletin.

Thank you to our parish for letting us go out to promote strong marriages and then excepting us back again. It's wonderful to be a part of such a wonderful parish family.
