R. C. I. A.… Continues this week same time after the 6:00pm Mass in the AA room behind the Rectory. We had a good beginning and it is not too late for anybody who may still be interested.

 

Are You Someone Or Do You Know Someone Who…has expressed an interest in becoming Catholic? Has a child over the age of seven who has not been baptized? Was baptized Catholic as a child, but has not celebrated the Sacraments of Eucharist and Confirmation? Please call me, or the Rectory at 226-2490.  

 

“Why Catholic?” … The remarks coming from those participating in “Why Catholic?” have been very positive and favorable. Because of that I encourage you to consider joining a group for the next few sessions, since it is on the very, very important topic of Prayer.

Eucharist Ministers        It is a great privilege to serve as a Eucharist Minister and Lector so we are

      And Lectors            encouraging those who participating in this ministry to please try to serve

Choose Life… Late last year the U.S. approved “ethically acceptable human cell lines,” so called because they were obtained from “extra fertility clinic embryos with parental consent.” Fr. Tad Pacholcyzk, a leading bio-ethicist, countered: “Classifying embryos as ‘surplus’ –is a flawed argument. There is no such thing as a surplus child who doesn’t matter. Every child matters, it is never ethical for parents to give consent to destroy their own children. Calling it ethical doesn’t make it so.”  (The Southern Cross, 1/10)       

 

***Sacrament of Reconciliation, Saturdays 5:15pm – 5:45pm**and by appointment***
