EUCHARISTIC ADORATION

We have Eucharistic Adoration every Thursday from 4:00 to 7:00pm.  Please join us as we spend some quiet time with God.

 

GENUINE HAPPINESS

  Attendance at church and Sunday school can be more refreshing to the mind than recreational activities such as golfing, fishing, and camping.  Communion with Christ can bring genuine contentment and joy.  The peace and inspiration of divine worship can put the mind and soul in order.

  Genuine recreation is spiritual in nature.  Once we are re-created through communion with God, recreational activities are more likely to help us unwind and relax.
