Mass Intentions
As Catholics, we have a long tradition of having Masses celebrated for those we wish to offer up in prayer. The Mass is the ultimate form of prayer, and each Mass is celebrated for an intention. Please consider having Masses celebrated for family and friends on special occasions and anniversaries, as well as those who are in need of prayers. Masses are also encouraged in memory of those loved ones who have died, especially on the anniversaries of their deaths. Contact Fr. Cory for more information!

We have a tentatively probable opportunity of having a young man come to speak to our students and parish. Gabe Murfitt gave a Skype talk to our SEARCH kids last year and it was amazing. Gabe was born with a unique body. He would say, everyone has a unique body but his is just a little more unusual. He has shorter arms, almost none, and his legs are crooked , so he is unable to walk. Gabe with the help of his best friend, Ruthie, a beautiful black Lab, travel around and give talks to schools, churches, and where ever they can. He took the word CLEAR to be the headline message for his book, My Message is C.L.E.A.R. CCourage LLeadership that is encouraging and compassionate EEndurance in hard times. AAttitude that enables you to achieve your goals. RRespect for others and yourself He is a remarkable gift from God to all of us to help us to grow as people of faith and character.
Watch for the for a sure date which COULD be October 10th. Thanks to everyone for attending our Peace Service. You kids were all so helpful in Peeling candles before and taking part during! A special thanks to Cathy Salsbery for taking care of the special music and Fr. for setting up the wonderful speaker system. And thanks to the parish for your support!!! @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
