Hi there, everyone! Hope you're having a great week & pray that we don't get too much snow today. Spring is almost here, I hope :).
Here is our Flocknote for this week:
1) Stations of the Cross: Join us for the praying of the Stations of the Cross every Friday morning @ 9 am in the Church.
2) Daylight Savings Time: Just a reminder that this Sunday we spring ahead with our clocks. Be sure to set your clock ahead before you go to bed on Saturday night.
3) St. Jospeh Table:
In celebration of the feast day of St. Joseph, (Sunday, March 19th) an altar in his honor will be located in the Gathering Space of our church. The altar will be up and ready to accept donations from this weekend, March 12th, through Sunday March 26th.
The St. Joseph’s Altar is an old tradition from Sicily after its people prayed to him to intercede to end a horrific famine. Their prayers were answered and they made beautiful altars to honor and thank him for his help. Each year on this Feast Day, bountiful altars or tables are created with a banquet of different foods. The altar/table has many symbols, some are: 3 tiers of the altar symbolize the Holy Trinity, fruits/vegetables symbolize the abundance of food, white flowers or the Lily is a symbol of St. Joseph. This year in honor of St. Joseph, we humbly ask parishioners to help fill St. Joseph’s Altar/Table with non-perishable foods. All items will be given to our St. Vincent de Paul Society.
Please bring your donations and place them on our altar, feel free to take a St. Joseph prayer card.
With next Friday being St. Patrick's Day there will NOT be a Flocknote next week!
God Bless,
Fr. John
