Our Lady Star of the Sea Praesidium (St. Paul the Apostle Church’s Legion of Mary) invites all its Active Members and Auxiliary Members to the Legion of Mary’s Annual Mass and Breakfast on November 1, 2014 (All Saints Day).

We’ll attend the 8:30 AM daily Mass followed by prayer of the Legion of Mary Tessera. Then, breakfast in Rooms 10/11.

The Founder of the Legion of Mary, the Servant of God Frank Duff, established the Legion of Mary in Dublin, on September 7, 1921. The Legion of Mary is a movement of prayer, Christian care and Marian spirituality. The movement spread worldwide and has enriched the Church in many parts of the world. The anniversary of Frank Duff’s death is November 7. Let us remember Frank Duff and all our deceased Active and Auxiliary Legion Members on this very special day.

Praise to God! St. Paul the Apostle Parish celebrates nine years of Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration, October 11 and 12 Volunteers will be on hand after Masses in the Narthex to answer questions and accept sign-ups for Adoration hours. We invite you this week to prayerfully consider the words of Blessed Pope John Paul II who proclaimed, "The best, the surest, and the most effective way of establishing everlasting peace on the face of the earth is through the great power of Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament." (Dec. 8, 1982 at St. Peter's)

Might you have time for a weekly hour?

Thank you St. Paul parishioners for your love and faithfulness to our Lord in the Most Blessed Sacrament!! Your prayers sustain our parish life and are hope for the world.
