Fr. Nick will be presenting a special three-night Lenten Mission called the Essence of Prayer with the celebration of evening prayer. During this season, we take time to prepare ourselves for the new life that Christ gives us by his resurrection celebrated on Easter Sunday. We are asked to devote ourselves to seeking the Lord though prayer and Scripture, almsgiving (giving to those in need) and sacrifice through fasting. Come join us to hear Fr. Nick offer insight on the Essence of Prayer. The mission will also be livestreamed! Tickets are not required.
We have St. Joseph coloring pages and a St. Joseph Family Lenten Calendar on the table in the parish hall. The calendar will help you incorporate prayer, fasting and almsgiving into your family life this Lenten season. This is for all ages!
