Taizé Prayer
Sunday March 19, 2017
6:30 PM St. Matthias Church
|
|
|
Taizé prayer comes from the ecumenical society in the village of Taizé, France. In addition to the movement's dedication to reconciliation, Taizé has spawned a meditation style of worship music base on Scripture, particularly the Psalms. Repetition is a hallmark of Taizé music and it is intended to promote meditation and prayer. Give your family the quiet of Lent.

Why Do Catholics...
|
|
|
 Cardinals Wear Red?
Colors in the Catholic Faith are a significant symbolism. Throughout our Catholic Faith tradition there are many colors associated to different Liturgical seasons of the year. Colors are associated to the various Feast days of the saints. Every week at Mass you see the presider wearing Vestments of various colors representing these special times of our Liturgical year.
Catholic signs or icons, such as the symbolism of Colors, are used to represent abstract ideas or concepts; a picture that represents an idea. A religious icon, such as a Color, is an image or symbolic representation with sacred significance. The meanings, origins and ancient traditions surrounding Christian symbols date back to early times when the majority of ordinary people were not able to read. Many were 'borrowed' or drawn from early pre-Christian traditions.

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.
