SIXTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME
Ash Wednesday is a day of fast and
abstinence. All persons 14 and older are
bound by the law of abstinence (no meat).
Adults from age 18 through 59 are required to fast
which means only one full meal daily and two other
small meals not equal to the full meal.
Guidelines for Lenten Abstinence:
Catholics are to practice the discipline of abstinence on the
Fridays of Lent. The law of abstinence forbids the eating
of meat, but not of eggs, the products of milk or
condiments made of animal fat. Permissible are soups,
gravy and sauces flavored with meat. Abstinence is to be
observed by all Catholics from the completion of their 14th
year – from the day after their 14th birthday – and
throughout life. These days of abstinence are binding
only to those in good health.
St. Vincent de Paul Society: There will be a meeting on
Tuesday, March 10th at 6:00pm in the Sacred Heart Room.
All current members are invited to once again actively
participate in serving our poor, as well as extending an
invitation to new potential members. Amy Aschmeier, the
Diocesan Council President of Toledo St. Vincent de Paul will
be attending the meeting on March 10 th to begin the
restructuring process and to answer questions.
Monroeville Knights of Columbus will be hosting
their BREAKFAST BUFFET this Sunday, February 15th at
the Monroeville Knights of Columbus Hall, Peru Center
Road. They will be serving from 8am to noon. Adults:
$7.00, Children: $3.00, children under 6 are free. The
public is welcome.
Lent By Candlelight At The Shrine: On Sunday,
st
March 1 , the Sorrowful Mother Shrine, south of
Bellevue will host Lent by Candlelight from 6:30 to
8:00pm in the Shrine cafeteria. It will be an
opportunity to reflect on Jesus’ Divine Mercy as well as enjoy
some fellowship and hors d’oeuvres. The Sacrament of
Reconciliation will also be available. To register for this
program or for more information, call 419-483-3435,
extension 6. Cost is a donation.
K of C Lenten Fish Fry: The Bellevue Knights
of Columbus will host a perch, shrimp and
chicken tender dinner each Friday from February
20th to April 3rd. Dinners include bread, choice of
baked potato, french fries, or onion rings, and

Dinners are served from 5:00pm to 7:30pm at

The proceeds support scholarships for local high
school seniors.

month of February. The Fish & Loaves baskets are located by
the candle room. Thank you for your generosity!
MESSAGE FROM FATHER JONATHAN
Dear Parishioners,
This is the commitment weekend for our diocese’s
Annual Catholic Appeal. You should have received a
letter from the diocese (carrying my name) asking for
your support. This appeal, along with parish assessments,
supports the larger work of the Church in our diocese.
One of the main expenses this money is used for is the
education and support of seminarians, especially those in
the final years of theological study before ordination to
the priesthood. Our own Austin Ammanniti will be
ordained a transient deacon in Carey on March 28. I am
happy to say that he will be with us for the Sunday
Masses on Palm Sunday. He has been serving his pastoral
year (much like an internship) at St. Michael’s in Findlay,
and he will return to Rome to continue his studies in the
fall. He will return home to be ordained a priest in late
spring of 2016. Your support for the ACA has helped
make his studies and ministry possible. Sometimes in
such appeals, it does help to see a “face” where our gifts
go. I know Austin appreciates the generosity of Catholics
in our diocese and especially from his own parish. I
certainly encourage your gift to the ACA. On behalf of
Bishop Thomas and all who benefit from your gift, I
thank you for your generosity.
Father Jonathan
2014 CONTRIBUTION STATEMENTS: If you wish to
receive a copy of your 2014 contribution statement, please call
or email the parish office. Statements can be picked up, emailed
or mailed to you. Email address is [email protected] or call
419-483-3417.
Are you looking to deepen your prayer life this Lenten
season? If so, please consider spending six minutes a day with
“The Little Black Book.” “The Little Black Book” contains
daily Scripture passages and reflections for each day of the
Lenten season, beginning with February 15th, the Sunday before
Ash Wednesday, and ending on April 5th, Easter Sunday. “The
Little Black Book” will be available after each weekend Mass in
the vestibule of the church for a $1.00 donation. They are also
available in the parish office.
ICS CYO Winter Sports Awards will be held Thursday,
March 5th at 7:00pm in the ICS Gymnasium. Family and friends
are welcome to attend to support our athletes and coaches on a
season well played!!
