Join the NEW Ways to Pray Always - 6-Week Course
starting this weekend
Many of us would like to learn how to include more prayer in our lives, and many more still are curious about what it would be like to pray daily, or even always. Using ancient Christian prayer practices, Daniel Wolpert’s book, Creating a Life with God, can show us new ways.
Join Sarah Spieldenner, hospital chaplain and St. Boniface parishioner, as she takes you through the exercises outlined in Wolpert’s guide. We will meet for six weeks as a group to share our experiences of individual prayer and to practice the same prayer exercises together in community.
Practices include the Jesus prayer, the examen, apophatic prayer, prayer through art and movement, etc. that promises to enliven your prayer life. Sign up here: https://forms.gle/8Yo9EZAavFzBqC7W9
6-Week Course, Saturday mornings from 9:30am to 11:00am, January 9 through February 13.

7th - 10th Graders & Older Parish Teens!
Thank the Heroes
The Oratory Parishes invite teens and pre-teens to a very special on-line event.
Learn about and thank the many unseen healthcare heroes who have risked their own lives to save others during the pandemic.
You’ll hear from Dr. Charlotte Austin a young doctor who grew up in Brooklyn. Dr. Austin works as a General Surgery Resident in New Jersey, and in a hospital especially hard hit by the pandemic.
Then, use your creative-side to express your thanks on a digital message board. We’ll share messages with Brooklyn Hospital and Newark Beth Israel where Dr. Austin works. Register any time prior to the event at:
Friday, Jan. 29th 4pm - 5pm
