First Annual ACC Mass
MAAA ACC Mass
Our Area Catholic Community held our First Annual Mass and Picnic.
All four parishes in our ACC, which are St. Mary's in Chokio, Assumption in Morris, St. Anthony's in Browns Valley, and Ave Maria in Wheaton
were invited for the day, which was held at St. Mary's Church in Chokio on Saturday, August 2nd.
Our day started with Mass at 10:30, followed by a picnic meal, and a time to meet and visit with fellow ACC members.
Fr. John Paul Knopik, Fr. Todd Schneider, and one of our servers.
