Hi there, everyone! Hope that you are having a good week! It's hard to believe that we're already almost halfway through November. Soon we'll be entering into our celebrations of Thanksgiving, Advent, & Christmas. Here's our Flocknote for this week...
1) Holiday Schedule: In this weekend's bulletin you'll find an insert with our upcoming holiday schedule. We had to adjust a bit this year with both Christmas & New Year's falling on Saturday's. On those days there won't be Confessions/Vigil Mass. Rather than listing all the times for everything here, please see the insert & post it on your fridge :)
2) Thanksgiving Mass: On Thanksgiving Day, Mass will be celebrated @ 9:00 am. Please join us in giving thanks to God for all of our blessings!
3). Movie Night: Mark your calendar for Saturday, Dec. 4th following the 5:00 Mass for our 1st Christmas Movie Night. We'll have pizza, water, & pop & we'll be showing the Charlie Brown Christmas Special & The Santa Clause. This is a great time to pause during the holiday season & share some social & fellowship time with each other. Please plain to join us!
4) Prayer of Surrender: Here is a wonderful prayer of surrender by St. Igatius of Loyola:
Take, O Lord, and receive my entire liberty, my memory, my understanding and my whole will. All that I am and all that I possess You have given me: I surrender it all to You to be disposed of according to Your will. Give me only Your love and Your grace; with these I will be rich enough, and will desire nothing more.
Have a blessed week!
Fr. John
