NEWS AT LOURDES HAPPY FATHER’S DAY TO ALL THE FATHER’S IN OUR COMMUNITY. We thank God today for the fathers in our lives and ask for His blessings on them. We remember all those who have helped fill the void when fathers pass early or are absent; grand-fathers and uncles, brothers and cousins, teachers, pastors and coaches. Enjoy your day!
UPDATES FROM THE PASTORAL CARE TEAM (PCT) - A Prayer Book is now available, located immediately adjacent to the votive candle stand at the side entrance to the Church. Please enter your prayer petition anytime before or after each of the mass-es. During mass, the Prayer Book will be presented at the altar along with the other offertory gifts, and petitions will be collectively acknowledged by the Celebrant. -The PCT is updating its list of sick and shut-in members so as to be a more effective
ministry to those in need. Over the next several weeks, we will be reviewing the cur-
rent list to be sure it accurately reflects those individuals who have requested a
prayer, a visit, or Holy Communion. If you would like your loved one to continue to
be on list, please contact the church office or call 678-235-5469. Thank you for your
patience as we carry out this important work.
