Vacation Bible School 2022 |
|
Pope Francis invites the entire Church to reflect on a theme that is decisive for its life and mission:
“It is precisely this path of synodality which God expects of
the Church of the third millennium.”
This journey, which follows in the wake of the Church’s “renewal” proposed by the Second Vatican Council, is both a gift and a task: by journeying together and reflecting together on the journey that has been made, the Church will be able to learn through Her experience which processes can help Her to live communion, to achieve participation, to open Herself to mission.
Curé of Ars will be participating in the 2021/2023 Synod in the upcoming months. Please look for more information to come about how to be involved in the Synod at Curé of Ars.

Saint Blaise - Blessing of the Throat |
|
Catholics often participate in the tradition of having their throats blessed. To do this, the priest consecrates two candles, generally by a prayer, and then holds each in a crossed position on the throat of the person being blessed. At the same time, the following blessing is given: “Through the intercession of Saint Blaise, bishop and martyr, may God deliver you from ailments of the throat and from every other evil. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.” Why does the blessing of the throat take place on St. Blaise Day? 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.
The Blessing of Throats will take place at Cure of Ars Parish after all Masses the weekend of February 5-6.
