For all those who suffer due to illness and disease especially Carl McNabb. May the healing light of Jesus shine on them and bring them good health.

For all who have died especially Vince Orias, father of Kristy Moser; and Dale Vaugn, father of Kelly Vaughn. May they obtain the fullness of your promises in the world to come.

 

Tomorrow night's final theme is "The Spirit of Truth" Join us for Mass at 6:00pm; followed by a soup supper in Jubilee Hall; and then we will listen to and reflect on the words by Fr. Timothy Radcliffe, OP.

-Fr Tim Clark
