Regional Listening Session II • Holyoke Deanery
As a follow-up to our initial Listening Sessions, parishioners from all churches throughout the Holyoke Deanery (Holyoke, South Hadley, and Granby) are invited to come together to continue the conversation, listen to one another, and share their hopes and vision for the future of our Catholic communities.
The same information will be presented at both sessions, so attendance at only one is necessary. Registration is required.
