Our Parish Lenten Mission, Salvation: The Backstory
This week – Monday through Wednesday, 6-7pm The Sunday readings are retelling the story of salvation. The first week we saw the need when we reflected on Adam and Eve’s first sin. The story of Abraham in week two, reminded us of this man’s great faith as well as his struggles to trust God. Last week we saw how we can question God’s plans. It all makes for great reflection and in our parish mission we’ll be taking it one step further. Join us as we explore the sub-theme of darkness and light and how that helps us fill in some of the background of our salvation story. Mark your calendar!
Lenten Penance Service Mon., Mar. 27, 6:30pm.
In this season of penance, we hope you’ll take advantage of the beautiful Sacrament of Reconciliation. The service will begin with a time of community prayer and reflection followed by the opportunity for individual confession. As we did during Advent, several priests will be available.
Can you help us host an Easter party?
On Wednesday, March 29th from 1-3pm, we’re hosting an Easter party at Bayside Terrace (on US 19, near the parish). We need your help to make it a memorable time for the residents. You could, for example, pass out food, drinks, and treats that we’ll have available, sing Easter songs with Fr. Kevin, or just have a friendly chat with a resident. Families are welcome to volunteer together. [And, if you’ve always wanted to be the Easter Bunny, we have a costume! You need to be less than 6’ tall and under 190 pounds. Let us know!] Call the parish office to volunteer.
