Evangelization
"Evangelization happens when the word of Jesus speaks to people's hearts and minds. Needing no trickery or manipulation, evangelization can happen only when people accept the Gospel freely, as the 'good news' it is meant to be, because of the power of the gospel message and the accompanying grace of God." (https://www.usccb.org/)
First Saturday Rosary
The First Saturday of the month Rosary will start at 4:00 PM allowing it to be finished before the 4:30 PM Mass and still have time for quiet, personal reflection. This will be an ongoing, monthly Rosary.
Power in Prayer
Let’s make time to speak personally to Jesus. Join fellow church members each Wednesday from the comfort of your home, workplace, etc., in spending 10 minutes in prayer anytime day or evening. Enlist your family, a friend, or perhaps you prefer a quite place to meditate. Prayers can be formal or not, including singing or reading scripture. You could offer your work, a kind act, or make a sacrifice as your prayer. We are called to be a holy people (set aside for sacred use). As we focus our mind and heart on Jesus, He transforms us, re-creating us into the ones He designed us to be.
November 23rd’s Intention: Increase in Faith and Love
“Faith and love are like blind man’s guides. They will lead you along a path unknown to you, to the place where God is hidden.” (St. John of the Cross)
Suggested Prayer: Intercession Prayer to St. Carlo Acutis
O God, our Father, Thank you for giving us Carlo, a model of life for young people, and a messenger of love for all. You made him fall in love with your Son, Jesus, making the Eucharist his “highway to Heaven.” You gave him Mary, as a beloved Mother, and with the Rosary, You made him sing the praises of her tenderness. Accept his prayer for us. Attend especially to the poor, whom he loved and assisted. Through his Intercession, may I receive the grace I need… (your intention) May his smile shine in your Kingdom as it did for us, to emanate the glory of Your Holy Name. Amen.
Our Father…
Hail Mary…
Glory Be…
