PERPETUAL ADORA nON
"Let us deepen, through adoration,
drawing upon aids to prayer inspired by
the word of God and the experience of so
many mystics, old and new. The rosary
itself, when it is profoundly understood in
the biblical and chrislocentric form, will prove a particularly
fining introduction to Eucharistic contemplation, a
contemplation carried out with Mary as our companion and
guide." St. Pope John Paul n. Needed hours: Fri., 11-12 noon;

INACTIVE CATHOLICS
We would like to invite all who are inactive to come back home.
The initial step is difficult...you belong here and we will be happy
to help.
From the Pastor's Desk
We are honored to have non-Catholics attend Mass, especially
your guests, and invite you to introduce them to our priests after
Mass. Any Catholic bringing guests should tell them about the
Mass prior to their visit. At Communion time, non-Catholics are
asked not to participate in Communion, which is viewed as the
Real Presence of Christ by Catholics, but not by all other
Christian groups . Catholics when attending other Christian
services, are reminded likewise not to participate in Communion
out of respect for difference in belief.
