Life Everlasting

Jesus said to Martha, “I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even through they die, will live, and everyone who lives and believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?” -John 11:25-26

Adults: Christ calls us form death to new life. To what new life are you being called during this Lent?

Children: how does Jesus help you do what is good and avoid what is not?

Prayer to St. Joseph
St. Joseph, Man of enlightening dreams
Obedient servant of God,
accompany us with your wife, the Blessed Virgin Mary, throughout our life to the glory and praise of God, now and forever and ever. Amen.
-Blessings & Prayers for Home & Family

Forsake me O Lord! My God, be not far from me! Make haste and come to my help, my Lord and my salvation! -Psalm 38:22-23

 Pope's Prayer Intention for March: victims of abuse
We pray for those who have suffered harm from members of the Church; may they find within the Church herself a concrete response to their pain an d suffering.
 

A Prayer for Lenten Grace

Loving God,

During the sacred season of Lent, bring me closer to you, 

Prepare a place in my house and heart for silence and solitude, so that I may re-discover the grace of gratitude and generosity.

Help me to fast from those things that threaten the well-being of body and soul,

Remind me of all the grace and simplicity.

May this season be grace-filled time to rekindle my love for and faith in you. Amen.

Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil; May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; And do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all evil spirits who wander through the world for the ruin of souls. Amen.

We ask the archangel Michael’s intercession for help against Satan’s attacks on family and community in our world.

Join us for some Bingo, fellowship and your chance to win a Ham and / Bacon. All are welcome! Funds raised are used for youth activities and camps.
 

Everyone is invited to pray the rosary starting at 6:30 pm. A benediction will follow with a "Marian" video at 7:00 pm.
Our first video with be broken up in 3 sessions. We will watch Fr. Don Calloway's Conversion: heroine, cocaine, opium, maijuana, excessive alcohol, not to mention hallucinogenic drugs. like mushrooms (psilocybin) and LSD - he consumed most of these before the age of 18, many before he turned 14, the additions growing stronger as the existential emptiness deepened. What sounds like an introduction to a Hunter S. Thompson novel actually constitutes the autobiography of a Catholic priest. Fr. Donald Calloway of the Marians of the Immaculate Conception who retells his dramatic and heart-wrenching life story.

ADORATION“Talk to God.. He will listen to you. This is a time for just you and God. Tell Him what is on your mind. And remember, to hear God...you must listen first.”
