Why Do Catholics...
|
|
|
 Light the Easter Fire?
One of the most beautiful things about the Catholic Church is the use of symbols to communicate meaning. Fire, one of the most frequently used symbols in our faith, communicates a number of different meanings: Holy Spirit, purification, or bring light into darkness. As we approach Easter and the end of Lent we use this symbol of fire in a moving ritual called "The Service of Light" which happens on Holy Saturday night at the Easter Vigil. This leads to the question, "Why do Catholics light the Easter fire?"

Memory issues, Dementia & Alzheimer's disease
|
|
|
 We all forget somethings at times but, when a person can no longer remember ordinary things it is called dementia.
Dementia can be very upsetting often the person does not know they are forgetting things. They may cover for years and hide their memory issues.
If you have a loved one that you are concerned about call me I have a packet of information that may help you.
Our packet has:
10 signs of early detection,
resources in the community,
support group information
and
practical information for caregivers.
Please call Wanda Nye RN, your parish nurse.

Isaiah 41:13
For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.

Matthew 5:14-16
You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden.
Nor do they light a lamp and then put it under a bushel basket; it is set on a lampstand, where it gives light to all in the house.
Just so, your light must shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your heavenly Father.
The
Communications Committee is looking for working members. This is an active ministry that works with our web site, Facebook page and E-Newsletter. The committee meets in the parish office conference room the first Wednesday of each month at 7:00 PM we are usually finished by 8:30 PM. You don't have to be a techno wiz; if you love to write and report on parish activities we welcome you. We need you to help bring the story of St. Mathias Parish forward. If you are interested, please call the parish office (414) 321-0893 or e-mail.
Thank you
