Children Faith Formation

Youth Faith Formation "Heaven on Earth" - We get it. Mass can

be boring, and something needs to change.

So, does the Mass need to change? Or does

our own perspective on the Mass need to

change?

Imagine a Sunday where you not only look

forward to going to Mass, but you look

forward to participating during the Mass and see it truly as Heaven on Earth.

All middle school and high school

youth in grades 6-12 are

invited to join us for "Heaven on

Earth" as we explore the Mass in

a dramatically new way to help

make worship at Mass the source

and summit that it is supposed to

be in our lives.

We meet on Sundays from

7pm -8:30pm in the tiger gym.

My Easter Prayer Offering

May the Vocation prayers you offered during Lent be a source of many blessings to our

Priests, Brothers, Sisters, Nuns, Seminarians, Postulants/Novices in Religious formation,

and those discerning God’s Call for their lives. For our Easter Celebration, please consider offering the following prayer:

Prayer for Vocations Saint John Paul II

Lord Jesus, as You once called the first disciples to make them fishers of men, let your sweet invitation continue to resound: Come, follow Me! Give young men and women the grace of responding quickly to Your voice. Support our bishops, priests, and consecrated people in their apostolic labor. Grant perseverance to our seminarians and to all those who are carrying out the ideal of a life totally consecrated to Your service. Mary, Mother of the Church, the model of every vocation, help us to say “Yes” to the Lord Who calls us to cooperate in the divine plan of salvation. Amen.

That Man is YOU

Parish Life

Grieving with Great HOPE is a five week grief support workshop in a DVD and small group discussion format. It offers a prayerful, practical and personal approach for adults who have experienced the death of a spouse, child, parent, sibling, grandchild, friend or other loved one. There are no stages to grief. We all experience loss in our unique way. It is through prayerful reflection, practical learning and personal fellowship

that we mourn. In mourning, we begin to build our bridge to a new and different life.

Workshop dates are April 4th, April 10th, April 17th, April 24th and May 2nd. 5:30pm - 7:00pm. Cost for the entire workshop cost is $20.00. Facilitated by Sister Ginny Braniff, MA and Diane Nuar, LPC. Please register by emailing Diane at [email protected]
