HOSPITAL VISITATION – Please call us at the rectory if you
or a member of your family is in the hospital in Grenada or elsewhere. Hospitals have a
privacy policy that doesn’t make known the people in the hospital. I would like to
visit people while in the hospital if at all possible to pray with them and to give them a
little encouragement.
CHOOSE LIFE – With assisted suicide, as with
abortion, there are compassionate alternatives to the killing choice. Those facing death
are entitled to adequate pain management, palliative care, and a community of support to
assist them in the final stages of life.
“Why Do We Have National
Collections?” The most Rev. William S. Skylstad,
President of the U.S. Conference of Bishops, says: “each parish is part of the Church
Universal. The Bishops of the United States created the national collections so that, by
combining resources, we can more effectively carry out our mission as Catholics. Each of
these important collections is worthy of our support and represents our community of faith
at work in the world, saving souls and improving lives. The national collections offer us
an opportunity to help our neighbors in the light of the Gospel and of stewardship and
sharing. God has given us our life and our prosperity. It is right just that we give
something back through these collections, helping people in our own country and around the
world to live better & to grow in the love of Jesus.”
