Dear Friend,
Core to our mission at Saint Andrew Parish is Sunday worship - Mass. It informs us, feeds us, and missions us to go out into the world. Building upon its importance, Fr. Sergio recently sent a letter to families of our School and RE program which describes the importance of attending Mass.
This Sunday, September 18, 2022 we have the joy of a familiar tradition at Saint Andrew as Family Mass will return on a monthly basis. Students from our school will assist in proclaiming the Word of God and leading our community in song. We'll then gather for Coffee and Donuts after Mass to spend some time in fellowship. Please join us!
For all of us, Fr. Sergio's letter reminds us that Mass isn't just something we squeeze in, plop down, and forget about things for 50 minutes. For us to have full participation we need to prepare, dialogue, engage, and envision. A weekly resource is being provided by Saint Andrew Parish this year to help us Celebrate Sunday. Check out this week's page and return for a visit as the content will be updated weekly - http://standrew.org/celebrating-sundays/
