March for Life Oversight

Hello Team,

I have an Oversight to report - in the transition period between Fr. Carroll and myself it seems that the Holy Name of Jesus Buses were not arranged for the March for Life.  (There are buses and seats available with local parishes... I am working on getting a list of those and that information to be available.)  Its one of a few things that seemed to have slipped through the cracks in those October days.  

I encourage all of you to at least pray for an end to abortion on January 22nd -- offer a Rosary or even make a visit to a Church and pray or go to the Blessed Sacrament adoration Chapel and pray for the protection of every child, from conception, through life, and until natural death.

We are doing are best to solider on here in this ice cold weather... looking forward to see you all on Sunday Evening.

God Bless,

Fr. Wilke

Happy Epiphany!

I hope that the Christmas Season has and continues to be a time of faith and hope… today is the traditional 12^th Day of Christmas, Epiphany, which we celebrated at our Sunday Masses this weekend. 

Our Holy Father, Pope Francis, had a great reflection on the Three Kings of Epiphany as well as a wonderful New Year’s Reflection about walking with Mary on our Journey of Faith.

Today is also the Feast day of St. Andre Bessette – a great saint !

This Sunday, January 12^th we will resume our weekly schedule of Youth Group meetings… see below for the full schedule of events for this month!

Happy Epiphany!

Fr. W
