Healing Mass… Mass this coming Friday December 2^nd is the First Friday of the Month. We are encouraging as many people as possible to participate in this Mass of Healing, where we pray to God for health of mind, soul and body. This Mass will be at 10:00am Friday morning. Hopefully our Knights of Columbus will furnish a little breakfast so we can have time for fellowship and conversation. 

 

Please… It is hard to believe but it is almost time for our Christmas Supper. Our Christmas Supper on

Please     December 11^th at 6:00pm and our Penance Service on December 13^th at 6:00pm. Our Christmas

Please    Supper is usually geared around our Christmas Santa Clause which makes everyone happy. Won’t you please make every effort to join us so that our church family can have food and fun and celebrate with Santa Clause and our children.  

 

 Penance Service…  This is a wonderful opportunity for us to change gears and think of something special that we can give the Lord for His birthday. The Sacrament of Reconciliation is a wonderful gift from God and our using of it to receive His grace and forgiveness is our special gift to him.

Carmelite Monastery… Consider supporting the Carmelite Nuns in Jackson, they have a wide range of Christmas gifts, which would make a suitable gift for children or adults and they would greatly appreciate our help. 

 

Choose Life… Women are sanctuaries of human life. We bear the most amazing privilege of having life formed within our own bodies. What a glorious gift from God, what a wonderful sanctity He has bestowed on women.” These words from a prizewinning essay by junior high school student Anna Maria Divozzo should cause all pro-life hearts to rejoice this Thanksgiving season.
