Fr. Jim's Jots - First Sunday of Lent, 3.10.19

Fr. Jim's Jots

Greetings!

Special thanks to Mr. Earl Taylor, now a 92 years young former student of Van de Vyver Catholic School, who had safely secured and stored the statue of the Sacred Heart now in a place of honor.  We remember the students, faculty and staff of this wonderful school.  We invite all former alumni of Bishop Van de Vyver School to attend a Mass celebrated by Bishop Barry Knestout on Sunday, March 24th at 9 a.m.  All are invited, with a lite reception immediately following Mass.

We ask that you participate in all the special Lenten activities, by certainly attending Sunday Mass, 9 a.m., as well as Stations of the Cross and a special Lenten Retreat, Saturday, March 23rd from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.; as well as, our 5th Sunday Social Justice Committee Service Project with Coordinator Deacon Chris, scheduled for March 31st.

Our Reconciliation Service with a total of four priests and lunch is Saturday, April 6th at 11 a.m.

Most importantly, may this Lenten time be a spiritual renewal and spring time to repent from sin and turn to Christ.

Blessings,

Fr. Jim
