Incarnate Word Associates Rummage Sale, June 28-June 29. The Venerable Jeanne Chezard de Matel, Founder of the Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament, also had a dream for a male branch of the Order she founded.

It will be held at the Dougherty Center on the Incarnate Word Academy campus (450 Chamberlain St.) Doors will be open Friday, June 28 from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM and Saturday, June 29 from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
