Recognizing and Responding to Signs of Trauma – These are trying times and most of us and those around us are probably experiencing more symptoms of trauma than we realize.  Please join us for a recorded webinar presentation from the St. Luke’s Institute on this topic.  Discussion to follow with study guide.  SUNDAY, MARCH 7 FOLLOWING THE 9:00 AM MASS in the social hall.  MASKS AND SAFE DISTANCING ARE REQUIRED.  BYO munchies and beverages if you like.

SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION – BY APPOINTMENT.  Please leave a message at the office or see me after Mass.

ADORATION OF THE BLESSED SACRAMENT Please join us for Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament each Thursday afternoon from 4:00 to 5:00.  This will be a time of silent prayer which ends with benediction.  Yet another genuinely PRO-LIFE activity.

Stations of the Cross will be observed at St. Christopher’s on Fridays during Lent at 6:00 PM.  Please join us in this solemn memorial of the Lord’s great love for us.
