A monthly Blessing of the Sick will be offered at St. Francis of Assisi Parish on the first Friday of each month in commemoration of Venerable Solanus Casey. A beloved Capuchin friar, Fr. Solanus Casey is credited with miracles and healings. He was humbly raised on a farm in Wisconsin and Pope John Paul II named him Venerable in 1995. The Blessing will incorporate Scripture, prayers of intercession and thanksgiving, a blessing with a relic of the True Cross, and Communion. Confession will be available beforehand at 1:30 PM. For more information call 414.374.5750, ext. 10 or email stfrancismil@gmail.com.
