My name is Robert (Bob) Peri. I was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, and have been a resident of Kenner, LA for over 40 years. I became a Pauline Cooperator on September 14, 2019. My journey to becoming a part of the Pauline Family began on a one-day retreat, given by the Daughters of St Paul at my parish church in 2012. Their love for Jesus, Our Lady, and the teachings of Saint Paul were evident during this retreat. I try to carry out the mission of evangelization by attending daily Mass, being faithful to adoration before the Blessed Sacrament, daily prayer, and contributing to the various financial needs of the Pauline Family. For anyone considering becoming part of a lay spiritual family, I would say this: “Start with prayer.”
