Dear St. Angela Merici Family,
We feel sorrow about not being able to gather together for Mass this Sunday. I also long to see all of you, but during this time as we consider the health of our community, we keep vigil together from our homes. Though we are apart for now, I want to recommend that we all set an intention this weekend to prepare to receive Christ into our homes so that we can worship Him there.
We are excited to gather with you digitally through our video of the Mass, which we will be posting at 10 am Sunday. Here’s the link to access the Mass: Here.
But first, let us remember that the Church teaches that our families' homes are the Domestic Church. “The Church is nothing other than ‘the family of God.’ From the beginning, the core of the Church was often made of those who had become believers 'together with all their household' (CCC, 1655).” This means that St. Angela Merici is built up of many churches — because each of your homes is a Domestic Church.
So I want to encourage all of us to make our homes sacred starting this weekend.
