The Black & Indian Grant has helped the Church of St. Anthony in Mandaree to provided many different opportunities for our students.

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz’s executive order to close schools on March 18, 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic thrust St. Michael’s School faculty and students into distance learning. St. Michael’s School took an aggressive approach, not wanting students to lose precious learning opportunity.
We are most grateful for the funds we receive at the Church of St. John the Baptist in Trenton. Because of this most generous grant, we are able to carry out some evangelization efforts that we normally couldn’t do.
On Saturday, July 11th, Deacon Charles Williams led 16 individuals on a Young Adult Slave Trail Walk in Richmond, Virginia. Deacon Charles, the Director of the Office for Black Catholics, partnered with the Office of Social Ministries to give young adults this experiential learning opportunity.
