Decades of Devotion
Each second Sunday of the month has been designated Decades of Devotion Sunday. For 15 months the parish will celebrate Emmanuel's (15 decades) 150 years of service. On these Sundays a small bit of history from that decade will be shared during the announcement portion of each service. Below are links to the decades that have been presented. Please click on the decade link to read the history of Emmanuel for that decade. New decades will be added each month until all 15 decades have been shared.
