Divine Providence Weekend

You're invited to donate nonperishable food items for our Food Pantry at Masses on October 1 and 2.

Please place items in the basket on the altar during the Offertory Procession. 

Religious Classes Begin

Rosary Congress the First Week of October

Rosary Congresses are held in response to Our Lady of Fatima’s call to conversion, consecration and prayer and are offered in a spirit of reparation, for life, peace in our families and the world, and the deep healing of our Church.

The Rosary Congress is the impetus to unleash the Divine Mercy upon us.

The Office of Family Life suggests praying a Rosary during Adoration, which runs each Thursday at our church from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. 

October is Respect Life Month

World Day for Grandparents and the Elderly

Established last year by Pope Francis, it fell this year on July 24, the Sunday closest to the Feast of Saints Joachim and Anne, Grandparents of Jesus. The theme chosen by Pope Francis for 2022 is: “In old age they will still bear fruit” (Psalm 92:15).

The Catholic Grandparents Association has been at the forefront in campaigning for a greater recognition of Grandparents for their role and vocation in passing on their faith to the next generation.

Is Your Marriage Blessed by the Church?

Are you married outside the Catholic Church and wish your marriage to become a sacrament?

PATHWAYS™ is a chance to gain insight into what steps are needed for your marriage to be blessed by the Church.  It is an informal gathering where you learn about Sacramental Marriage, Convalidation, Annulments, and the steps to an Exchange of Vows.

Find out more about PATHWAYS at https://marriagebuildingusa.org/pathways/ .

National Marriage Week was February 7-14, and World Marriage Day was Sunday, February 13.

The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops and Diocese of Charleston also offer the following resources: https://bit.ly/marriagewk , foryourmarriage.org ,  and https://www.facebook.com/DioceseChas .

Helping Ukraine

Pope Francis asked bishops, priests and all people of goodwill to join him on March 25 in the Consecration of Russia and Ukraine to the Immaculate Heart of Mary "...so that God's Holy People may raise a heartfelt and choral plea to Mary our Mother."

A special collection at our Masses on March 12 and 13 was  for the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine.   Anyone wishing to still make a donation can place it in an upcoming offertory collection (clearly marked as designated for Ukraine assistance), or you can donate through Catholic Relief Services at www.crs.org .

Precautions End for Vaccinated

The diocese says we can end the precautions that were taken due to COVID-19, except for the distribution of the wine at Holy Communion.  Father Hugo says the end of precautions will apply to those who are vaccinated.  Anyone who is not vaccinated is still asked to wear a mask during Mass.

THURSDAY:         4:30 to 5:30 PM
