Greetings in Christ!
The harvest is abundant, and so is God's grace...
That's right, God's goodness and grace abound, even in these cautious times. Take a moment to recall the bounty of the Lord in your life... and thank Him!
Join us for Marian Prayers and Devotions this month. Sundays at 3pm. Spend about 35 minutes with the Lord and open your heart to his goodness. Adoration, Rosary and Litany of Mary. October 4, 11, 18.
Prayer and the Sacraments
What does the Catholic Church have to offer in these times? Two essential items, one essential Person...
- Prayer is conversation. Prayer is a relationship.
- The Sacraments are living encounters. The Sacraments give grace.
Conversation with? Encounters with? Grace, what?
Our Savior, Jesus Christ
I am praying for you and your family. As we navigate the challenging waters of 2020, let us never underestimate the power of intercessory prayer!
Do you have a special prayer request? Please let me know. One of the roles and missions of the priest is to intercede for his people and to shepherd his flock.
I have a prayer request: the mother of my sister-in-law needs prayers. She is in the final stages of dementia. Her name is Ann. Pray for her family. Thank you.
Are you still here?
Just a few more items...
- St. Helena's Altar Society Meeting is cancelled for October

- Let's end this message with a bang! October is Respect Life month. The 40 Days for Life prayer campaign has begun. You can pray from your own home for the protection of every life. Please remember to vote next month.
