Adoration

For the Week of 1-27-2016

Adult Confirmation

When one receives the Sacrament of Confirmation, the Confirmation name is spoken and the Bishop puts Chrism Oil on the person’s forehead, says their name aloud, and then says, “Be sealed with the gift of the Holy Spirit”. The person responds, “Amen”. Meaning, I do believe that I have received the gift of the Holy Spir-it to enjoy its fruits and share it with others.

Adult Confirmation class is on Sunday, at 5:30pm, in the CCD Hall.

You can register when you come. Any questions please call

Keith Ellender at 528-0009.

We are collecting palms to make our ashes for Ash Wednesday.

There is a basket in the foyer or you can drop at the church office.

St. Peter Claver Outreach “to bring to life spiritual and corporal

works of mercy in our community”

We are asking now for food donations

for our distribution center.

We had a big month last month and we’re running low. We would appreciate

any help replenishing our stock.

Our church has been assigned green vegetables and canned meals such as soups, ravioli, etc.

You can drop it off at the Church Office.

Thank you and may God Bless!
