Summer Bible Study - Jesus: The Way, the Truth, and the Life
Presented by Marcellino D’Ambrosio, Jeff Cavins, and Edward Sri, this 10-session study program will be offered on Tuesdays, 7-8:45pm, in the PMC, from June 8 – August 24 (there are 2 weeks we won’t meet). Filmed on-location in the Holy Land and anchored in the life of Christ as presented in the Gospels, this study explores the entirety of Jesus’ life—who he is, what he is really like, what he taught, what he did for our salvation, and what all of this means for us as Catholics today. This award-winning study takes Catholics a step deeper into the life of Christ, inviting us to travel through the Holy Land as the study goes to the Sea of Galilee, Calvary, Capernaum, Bethlehem, and more!
Cost & Registration: $33 for the workbook study set if registered by May 13, the cost increases to over $38 if registered after the May 13 deadline. Participation may be limited due to Covid-19 restrictions, but registration comes with online access to all videos, in case you miss a class or Covid precautions prevent some in-person meetings. For more information and/or to register, contact Sonja Beaudoin at
beaud181@regis.edu.

Would you like to honor Blessed Mother Mary and make Her Rosary better known?
The
To Jesus Through Mary (TJTM)
Ministry team strives to increase awareness of the importance, benefits and power of the Holy Rosary, the devotional prayer that is so close to Jesus’ Sacred Heart. The many miracles that happen when the Rosary is devoutly prayed are clearly documented, and no one can argue that the world desperately needs miracles today. If you can lead Rosary prayer, help plan and execute Rosary promoting activities, and/or make Rosaries to gift to those who need them, please contact Elsie Coyne at
edel@centurylink.net or Elaine Martinez at
emartinezemm@comcast.net.
Will you spread the message of Fatima to save souls?
The way to turn back to God is the same way that God came to us - through Blessed Mary. Promoting Marian devotion can lead poor souls to conversion, to do God’s will, and to have faith and trust in Jesus. The
To Jesus Through Mary Ministry seeks parishioners to help souls live the Fatima message. Our Lady clearly gave us remedies to combat the rampant infestation of evil in the world. If you can lead the Rosary prayer after Sunday 8am Mass, or before Saturday or Sunday 5pm Mass, make Rosaries, or help plan Rosary promoting activities, please contact Elsie Coyne
edel@centurylink.net or Elaine Martinez
emartinezemm@comcast.net.
Daily prayer at 3pm
Fr. Gregory and our parish council encourage you to set an alarm on your phone as a reminder to #pray@3. Jesus, we trust in you!
