Pastoral Messages from Fr. Rick 3-10-21

Transformative Grief: Please join us for another webinar from the St. Luke’s Institute in the social hall next Sunday morning, March 21, right after the 9:00 Mass.  A study guide will be provided, but please BYO coffee and treats as desired.  Masks and safe-distancing will be observed.

Overview:  Grief impacts us all, at different times and in unexpected ways. The only choice we have as we experience grief is how we respond to it. In this unusual time of collective and individual grief in our society, Emily Cash, Psy.D., offers skills for engaging the grieving process in a healthy way.

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.
