Greetings!

It is hard to believe October is almost over! Soon we will be getting ready for the holiday season, which means family and friends getting together. What a great time for this letter from Bishop Hicks to come out. As you will read, he tells us all to find our voice, because we all preach. Such great words of advice! You can read his letter by clicking here.

Have a beautiful week and please let the parish office know if there is anything we can do for you. God bless~

Adoration, Tues, Oct 26

As Father Mark invited us to take some time for ourselves in prayer, Adoration is a beautiful opportunity for yourself, for Our Lord, for your peace. Tuesday, Oct 26, 7pm in the church. Benediction to close the evening at 8pm. All are welcome to come, pray, breathe, love.

OCTOBER IS ROSARY MONTH

Our Lady of Fatima to Sister Lucia: "Continue to pray the Rosary every day."

Pope Benedict XV: St Dominic knew that Mary is of a nature so kind and merciful that, seeing that it is her custom to succour the miserable of her own accord, it is impossible she should refuse the petitions of those who pray to her.

RE invites all to pray the Rosary most Mondays in October. Next Mon, Oct 24, we will be praying the Sorrowful Mysteries together.

He Will Come Again
