The Precious Blood community in the surrounding areas gathered at Sacred Heart Church in Warrensburg to celebration the anniversary of the founding of the community. We began our time with prayer which included readings from scripture and Saint Gaspar as well as a reflection by Companion Ruth Mather. We concluded our time of prayer with the celebration of Companion covenant renewal. Congratulations to Shirley Schlobohm who renewed her covenant. We continued our celebration in the parish hall with a wonderful buffet provided by the Central Missouri Companions. Many thanks to the Companions and Fr. Joe Bathke for their wonderful hospitality.
