Archbishop Joseph F. Naumann and Bishop James V. Johnston will concelebrate a special Mass with Anointing of the Sick and ritual blessing of the sick, in the manner done at Lourdes, France, on Saturday, March 23, 2024, at 10:00 AM at Cure of Ars Parish. We encourage anyone who is sick, suffering, or chronically ill, and their caregivers, to attend. A short reception will be held after the Mass. If possible, please send the names of those who wish to receive the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick to maltakc@yahoo.com. | |
Bilingual Speakers needed | |
Do you speak a language other than English? We would love for you to participate in our unique Pentecost Readings at Masses on May 18th and 19th. Our Lectors Ministry will be presenting the First Reading of the Mass, when the Apostles are filled with the Holy Spirit in Acts 2:1-11, spoken in several different languages. In order to present the reading in this way, we need multiple volunteers willing to speak the reading in another language. Any language is welcome. There will be 4 rehearsals in advance where we will bring together the main, English speaking, Lectors as well as 3-5 others who will speak the same reading individually in another language as well as all together illustrating the amazement of the Apostles hearing the words of God in their own tongues. The dates and times of the rehearsals are weekday evenings in May. Please contact Lillian Klein in the Parish Office if you are interested in participating, have any questions or need more information. | |
