Rite
Of Christian Initiation Of Adults…The R.C.I.A. will resume in the fall.
If you know of anyone interested in the R.C.I.A., or for more information, please call the
Rectory at 662-226-2490 or let Karla know. RCIA is basically a detailed course of
instruction on the Catholic Faith, composed of three parts; 1st Period:
A time of questions and
answers from the people interested. 2nd Period: The teaching and
explanation of the main doctrine of the Church Faith. 3rd Period: Spiritual
growth normally taking place during the Holy Season of Lent.
Inspirational Quotes: 1. If you are heading in the
wrong direction, God allows u-turns. (Anonymous) 2. Dreaming about a thing in order to do
it properly is right; but dreaming about it when we should be doing it is wrong. (Oswald Chambers) 3. Beware of the half truth. You
may have gotten hold of the wrong half. (Anonymous)
Choose Life… Rep. Chris Smith, R-N.J., the author
of a 2005 law authorizing $265 million in federal research funds for adult stem cells from
cord blood and bone marrow, asked in a statement: “Why does the president persist in
the dehumanizing of nascent human life when better alternatives exist? On both ethics
grounds and efficacy grounds nonembryonic-destroying stem-cell research is the present and
future of regenerative medicine – and the only responsible way forward.” (Catholic News Service, 3/9/09)
