R O S A R Y F O R M E R C Y

There will be NO meeting on

February 17th due to the Parish Mission.

Our next meeting is 2/24/16. The act of making rosaries can become a prayerful

experience. Assembling the beads keeps your hands busy so that your mind and spirit can be on

the mysteries of the Rosary. Please consider making rosaries. If you cannot make

rosaries, please consider a donation to the Rosary Makers.

Come join us. We meet on Wednesdays at 9:30AM in Room 220 FEC.

For more information, call MARY BEEKMAN at 638-2747 or DIANNE CRISAFULLI at 874-0058.

A Message From Fr. Mark Wajda

Blessings in the Lord! As we begin the Lenten season, I wanted to take a

few lines to update you on a few things:

1. During Lent we will be having confessions after

the Stations of the Cross every Friday from 6:30

till 8PM.

2. We are looking to begin a Saturday 8:30 AM

Mass (no scheduled start date yet)

3. We are going to combine all the working electric

candles into 2 sets so they will light when an

offering is made.

4. We are hiring Security Guards to be on campus

till 11PM everyday.

5. We are still waiting for final approval to begin

renovations; as soon as I know, you’ll know.

Thanks so much for your patience and

support!

Pope Saint John Paul II on Respect Life

In an address given during the 1976

Eucharis!c Congress in Philadelphia for

the bicentennial celebra!on of the

signing of the

Declara!on of Independence, (then Cardinal Karol

Wojtyla) Pope St. John Paul II spoke some prophe!c

words:

“We are standing in the face of the greatest historical

confronta!on humanity has ever experienced. I do

not think that the wide circle of the American Society,

or the whole wide circle of the Chris!an community,

realizes this fully. We are now facing the final

confronta!on between the Church and the an!-

church, between the gospel and the an!-gospel,

between Christ and the an!-Christ. The confronta!on

lies within the plans of Divine Providence. It is,

therefore, in God’s Plan, and it must be a trial which

the Church must take up, and face courageously.” We

are Catholic Chris!ans. Let us stand up for life, from

concep!on to natural death, from womb to tomb!

Please come to the novena a!er Mass on

Wednesday, February 17, for Papal Inten"ons.
