Stillwater Gazette Community Faith Faith Formation to hear about Haiti relief
The St. Croix Valley Faith Formation afternoon and evening confirmation classes will hear a presentation from Fr. Bernard Reiser on the Haiti relief effort.
The Faith Formation will be assisting Reiser and Haiti through its Lenten Almsgiving program, which will begin Feb. 24.
The public is invited to hear Reiser's presentation at 4 p.m. and 6:30 p.m. in the St. Michael's Social Hall and at 7:45 p.m. in St. Mary's Great Hall.
Reiser is the founding pastor of Epiphany Parish in Coon Rapids and served as their pastor for 40 years. For many years, the parish was known as one of the largest in the five-state area.
Reiser, now retired, has been very active in the Haiti relief effort. Over several years, he and others have also helped build a school, an elderly care facility, distributed food and water and operated an orphanage in the Caribbean island.
