News and Notes

The St. Louis/St. Charles Area Associates have grown in the past four years from 6 to 24 members, with participation of RSCJ growing from one to sixteen. We decided that trying to meet as one single group was too cumbersome and didn’t allow for everyone to feel comfortable sharing.Starting in September, we will break up into three smaller groups. Additionally, there will be four opportunities for the whole group of Associates to meet – September retreat, Advent and Lenten times of reflection, and a service project at a local charity.
