LIVE YOUR FAITH

We all seek deeper meaning in our lives, but probably more so during these troubling times.  This summer visit www.catholicnh.org. for a new series called “Live Your Faith.”  Each week a new theme is presented along with suggestions and resources selected to enrich your spiritual life.  Practical day-to-day topics explore ways we can come to a deeper relationship with the Lord and with others.  Read about forgiveness, prayer, participating in your community, managing your household, and much more.  Please join us for this summer journey of faith and hope.

 

VOCATIONS PRAYER CHALICE

The Serra Club (lay people dedicated to fostering priestly vocations) is sponsoring a Chalice Program, which has already begun in our parish.  A family agrees to receive a chalice in the home for a week as the focal point of prayer for vocations to the priesthood.  It serves as a reminder to pray for an increase of vocations.  If interested, please call Joan Broom at 763-9772.

 

SAVE THE DATE

The Crop Walk is coming!  Mark your calendars now to participate on Sunday, September 27.  The area interfaith community will be walking around Pleasant Lake to raise awareness and money for the hungry-both locally and worldwide.
