New and Noteworthy
Sign Up for New Friday Adoration Hours!
Come adore Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament at Peter the Rock Chapel! Starting in Lent, there will be Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament every Friday from 9am to 3pm—
but only if we have enough adorers signed up to ensure every hour is covered. The night before his Passion, Jesus asked his disciples for one thing: to spend an hour in his company (see Matt 26:40). As you prepare your heart for Lent, please consider making a regular commitment to spend an hour in the Lord's company. It will change your life, and it will help us expand the available hours of adoration! Sign up at
adorationpro.org/peterco (click on Weekly Commitment to see available hours). For questions, contact Tara Stone at
fidesetspes@gmail.com or 719-650-4485 (text message preferred; leave a voicemail if you call).

Blessing of the Throats - Tuesday, February 4, 8:15am & 5:30pm
At daily Masses on the feast day of St. Blaise, throats will be blessed for protection against throat ailments and other illnesses. St. Blaise, a physician and bishop, asked God to cure a child who was choking to death on a fish bone, and the child’s life was saved. Thus, St. Blaise is the patron saint of healthy throats.
Tapping into Theology - Tuesday, February 10, 7pm
Are you familiar with the Devotion to the Holy Face of Jesus? It has had a huge resurgence across the world. The Devotion honors the Face of Jesus, particularly as it was in His Holy Passion, and focuses on reparation for the blasphemies, profanations, and offenses against God, especially in the first three Commandments. Join Jule Lane, director of the apostolate,
Defenders of the Holy Name of God, for her Tapping into Theology presentation,
"Revolution of Reparation and Hope: Holy Face of Jesus," in the PMC. St. Peter parishioner Theresa Knapp will join Mrs. Lane in her presentation. An 1879 Veil of Veronica relic image sealed by Pope Leo XIII will be available for veneration. This will be a perfect talk to prepare for Lent beginning on 2/19. RSVP to
