Nari Gunjan Learning Center Poor box

Prerna Chhatravas Hostel is home to 150 girls from the Mushahar community in Dananpur, close to Patna India. These girls come from the lowest and poorest caste in India; they are

shunned by all, even the poor. The girls have never had an opportunity for education or a life other than that which they have known in poverty. The girls learn not only academics but also life skills. They learn about hygiene and health which they

take home to their families. The girls study, exercise, eat regular meals (a luxury many of them never knew), play, sing, learn

sewing and embroidery and undergo vocational training. Please support our collection for this worthy cause.

There is a brochure on the notice boards at the entrances with more information.

Reconciliation

Holy Saturday 11am

In the RECTORY

Holy Week is an extraordinary experience in the Church year! We have the opportunity to participate in many rites of deep meaning and tradition during the period. One such rite is the foot washing ceremony that takes place during the Mass of the Lord's Supper on Holy Thursday, April 13th. The Mass of the Lord's Supper begins the Triduum. It commemorates the Last Supper and is a living memorial of the institution of the Eucharist and of the Lord's Passover in which Jesus left us sacramental signs of his new covenant. Through the mandatum, the washing of the feet, Jesus reminds us of the self-sacrificing nature of his love. Jesus, servant of the human race, loves us to his death. Jesus, servant of all, washes the feet of those he serves and instructs his disciples to go and do the same. We share in the servant hood of Christ. If you would like to participate in this rite contact Dee in the parish office 410-462-5267, ext 111 or [email protected]

PARISH IGNATIAN WEEKEND RETREAT LOYOLA ON THE POTOMAC

APRIL 21-23, 2017 "Entering into the Father's Joy"

In the parable of the Prodigal Son, Jesus invites every disciple of every age into the Father's loving embrace. Through that embrace we enter into the Father's joy, which transforms us. This retreat invites us into the mystery of God's action in our lives, relying on the Spiritual Exercises and the spiritual wisdom of other Christian teachers of prayer. The retreat is open to anyone who desires to grow in their relationship with God through prayer. Contact Joy Aker for more information: [email protected]

It's never too

early... to be thinking of

our biggest event of the

year~ our Annual

Woodstock Festival. This year, our 102nd festival will take place the weekend of August 12th and 13th.

Our first planning meeting will be Wednesday, April 26 at 7pm

downstairs in the church hall.

All parishioners are invited and welcome.

We need you!

We especially need help with cooking the chicken

that weekend and cleaning the kitchen Sunday

evening. There are huge, heavy pots to clean!

Please consider prayerfully getting involved

with this fantastic parish event.

FLOWERS FOR THE SANCTUARY For many of us, live plants and flowers tap our spiritual core and enrich our worship experience. The colors can be coordinated to celebrate the season of the liturgical year. For others, they beautify the sanctuary. People donate flowers to celebrate weddings, births, and anniversaries, to honor friends and family, to memorialize those who have moved on--for any reason at all. With a beautifully renovated church, we want to establish a flower fund especially to keep coordinating fresh flowers in front of the altar and by the baptismal font. You can designate your donation to be used for a specific weekend and in memory of a specific person or event. Please consider donating! Contact Dee at [email protected]

In Our Community Married & Engaged Couples: Please join us on Friday May 12 at 7:00pm for a talk by Fr. Josh Laws: Living Marriage in the Image and Likeness of God. It will take place in Harrison Hall at Our Lady of Perpetual Help church in Ellicott City. The talk will be followed by drinks and dessert and a time of fellowship. For more information contact Kathy Schmidt 410-747-5611.
