of My mercy, that they may draw therefrom strength and refreshment and whatever grace they need in the hardships of life.....
Saint Faustina said: Jesus instructed me to write down and make
this novena before the Feast of Mercy. It begins on Good Friday.
“I desire that during these nine days you bring souls to the fountain
of My mercy, that they may draw therefrom strength and refreshment and whatever grace they need in the hardships of life, and
especially at the hour of death. On each day you will bring to My
Heart a different group of souls, and you will immerse them in this
ocean of My mercy, and I will bring all these souls into the house of
My Father. You will do this in this life and in the next. I will deny
nothing to any soul whom you will bring to the fount of My mercy.
On each day you will beg My Father, on the strength of My bitter
Passion, for graces for these souls”.

St. Vincent de Paul Society News
A HUGE THANK YOU to Sofia Zanzi and Joseph Ramirez from the 5th grade at SEAS school. Joseph baked cookies and sold them with the
profit going to SVDP of $26.00 and Sofia put bags
with a note saying she was collecting nonperishables for SVDP around her neighborhood (100
homes) and collected 35 bags which included
about 200 items for our closet. These were wonderful Lenten projects keeping the less fortunate in their young minds. Keep up the good work kids!!!
This week we had 63 families, 218 people and 215 boxes/bags of
food. We always give 1 or 2 boxes of non perishables depending
on the size of the family, and meat, vegetables and fruit in addition. Our construction is coming to an end and we will again be able to
take larger items , hopefully by the end of March. Please contact Laura Wade and Angela Banbury at [email protected]
with any questions. CHILDREN’S LITURGY OF THE WORD
CLOW is a parent participation ministry staffed solely by volunteers for 1st4th graders which takes place during Sunday 9am, 11am, and 5pm Masses.
Father calls up the children AFTER the Opening Prayer and we process the
children to the Parish Center for our class. The children return at the end of
the Homily so they can participate in Holy Communion. Please email clow@
gscceg.org for more information if you would like to volunteer as a Catechist
or assistant .
