-BREAKING NEWS!!!
Due to the overwhelming demand for Casey Bears, our supply of Casey Bears has dwindled, and we are out of stock. Over the past 12 months, 80 cases have been distributed to many councils throughout the State. But don’t worry, more Casey Bears have been ordered and are expected to arrive in mid-August. If you want to order now, I will hold on to the order until the shipment arrives. When our stock has been replenished, I will let you know.
Have a Blessed Summer…

-From Your State Faith Director
Brothers & Sisters,
On July 21, 2023, my wife and I were invited to the Bi-District meeting in Posen, Michigan to give testimony and talks about veiling.
We very happily accepted the invitation and drove 4.5 hours after work to attend. We were very impressed with the turnout and felt very welcomed.
Talking about our Faith is very important to my wife, Loree, and I. We hope to help turn things around in our Church and bring it back to the way Christ had intended for us. We can cover why the Love of Mass, Orans posture, receiving Holy Communion, prayer and other experiences of our Faith Journey.
Our next stop will be in Benton Harbor on August 1st to deliver the Icon of St. Joseph. We are willing to travel to share our Faith at any of your meetings.
Vivat Jesus!
Bob Bagley
State Faith Director
Love and Pray for each other!
