Pope Francis' Intention for September:  Abolition of the Death Penalty

We pray that the death penalty, which attacks the dignity of the human person,

may be legally abolished in every country.


PRAYER

Prayer is communication with God who loves us as we are, unconditionally. We encourage you to take any opportunity to pray, including the ones listed below.

STATIONS OF THE CROSS: You can pray the stations of the cross at the church or in your home

 

SATURDAY EVENING PRAYER GROUP:  Meets at 4:00pm in the Prayer Room, before the 5pm Mass, to pray for world peace and for our priests. All are welcome to come and recite the Rosary and Divine Mercy Chaplet.

 

ROSARY FOR THE UNBORN: Every TUES at 1pm in the church near the tabernacle, when possible.

Please enter through the South doors (small parking lot with the alley).

The Hope and Joy of Advent

Nov 28 to Dec 24

The custom of the Advent wreath draws attention to the

Light that Christ brings us as Christmas approaches.

  It invites us to bear witness to that Light of the World.

 Jesus is our Hope, our Faith, our Joy and our Peace.

 

                                                         Pope Francis said,

                                                         “It is the beautiful task of Advent to awaken in all of us memories of goodness

                                                                            and thus to open the doors of hope."
