Why Do Catholics...

 Cross their Forehead, Lips and Heart at the Gospel?
My first thought is that we want to keep the Word of Christ with us in all of our body and soul. You know We make a small Cross on our Four Heads, we are keeping the word on our minds we think about the Word throughout the day, week and as far as you can take it. We make a sign of the Cross on our Lips, you need to speak the Word of the Lord to help keep it alive. We make the sign of the Cross on our hearts, our hearts are to keep the Lords Word in a safe place so you can think and talk about it while giving it away to others who may need to hear it.

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.

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

These examples can seem remote and removed from our own experience, but we have a strong example within our parish family---our sister parish, St. Mary of the Angels, in Aramberri, Mexico.
