HEALING MASS…We are all mindful of the fact that Jesus Christ does
much of
the healing when we are sick. For this reason I
would like to start a Mass of Healing on
the first Friday of each month at 10:00am. A
Mass of Healing is completely different from
the anointing that takes place in the case of
serious sickness. I’m hoping that many of our
people will avail of this opportunity and we are
hoping to have a little brunch and fellowship afterwards.
***Healing Place: St. Peter Catholic Church
***Mass… Date: March 6th 2009
Time: 10:00am…followed by scrambled eggs and toast in the Family
Life Center. Anybody can avail of this special prayer of asking God, of his protective and
healing hand, for our total bodily health.
LENTEN FRIDAY Each Friday during the Holy Season
of Lent we will have Mass at 8:00am.
AT ST. PETER
Stations of the Cross, scripture reading, short meditation followed
by
Holy Communion
beginning at 6:15pm.
PLEASE…let us all make a genuine
effort to make Lent a special time in Our Church.
our Penance Service.
HOLY SEASON OF LENT - All the Fridays of the Holy
Season of Lent are days of Fast and Abstinence.
The Knights of Columbus will have a meeting of the
4th degree after Mass in the Family Life Center 3/15/09.
Congratulations…go out to the newest members of
the Knights of Columbus, Matt Strong, John Portis and Chris Major.
CHOOSE LIFE… “One day… Our
Nation will… look back on what we have been doing to the innocent human beings within
their mothers as a crime no less heinous that what was approved by the Supreme Court in
the ‘Dred Scott case’ in the 19th century, and no less heinous than
what was perpetrated by Hitler and Stalin in the 20th.” Cardinal Edward Egan in
Catholic New York, October 23, 2008
THE R.C.I.A. will meet this Tuesday
night March 3rd at 6:30pm,
