Mark your calendar! This next series will lead us in a closer relationship with the one who is closest to Jesus, His Mother, Mary. He desires us to know her, love her and be in close relationship with her. Therefore, during this study, we will consecrate ourselves to Mary which will allow her to lead us in deeper intimacy with her Son. This seven week series will feel more like a retreat in the presentation of the material and the reflection questions. We will also learn what four saints knew about the quickest, surest and easiest way to holiness. The DVD presentation is by Fr. Michael Gaitley, MIC, an excellent speaker, followed by small group discussion. We will be using his textbook and workbook, entitled 33 Days to Morning Glory, along with a Bible and Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Attention Parents and Grandparents of children in Kindergarten! Designed for children in Kindergarten, this program fosters their interest in and understanding of the process of Religious Education. We meet in the Solarium (room near the statue of Jesus with the Children) monthly, on Friday afternoons at 4:30pm. The theme has been “Welcoming Jesus” and we have covered many topics: Prayer, Sharing, and Community among them. This year, the Program will begin in October. We have expanded our range of topics to include some holiday traditions and explanations of the Church seasons so that a young child may connect more easily with parish life. The program is entirely voluntary – so come and see! If you plan on coming, e-mail Sister Diane so we will have enough materials: [email protected].
