RENEW youth groups inspire adult organizers
Our very own RENEW group for eighth graders at Our Lady of Mercy School facilitated by parishioner Sue Noma and her friend Maria Banico under the guidance of Sister Olive Kingsbury, was featured recently in the Catholic San Francisco newsletter last March 3, 2000. This youth group was launched as a pilot program for the eighth grade confirmation class and its success proves that RENEW's themes of spiritual renewal and faith sharing inspires the youth.
