On Saturday night, April 29, parishioners of St. John the Evangelist church in Emory, Texas received the horrifying news that a tornado was heading in the direction of their church. Immediately, the parishioners found the safest spot they could – the hallway in between their parish hall and the main church.

The Texas State Court of the Catholic Daughters of the Americas held its 50th Biennial Texas State Convention in Corpus Christi on April 20-23 and celebrated “100 years of Unity and Charity” at the American Bank Center.
