Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
The month of September is dedicated to the Seven Sorrows of Mary. Take time to learn more about the Seven Sorrows Devotions, and take time to pray the Seven Sorrows prayer here.
Other things to celebrate in September...The Nativity/Birthday of the Blessed Virgin Mary 9/8, Grandparents Day 9/12, The Exaltation of the Holy Cross 9/14, Catechetical Sunday 9/19, St. Matthew 9/21, Priesthood Sunday 9/26, St. Vincent de Paul 9/27 and the Archangels 9/29, to name a few!
This month also marks the 20th anniversary of the attacks of September 11. Let us remember all those who lost their lives on that day. Share your memories with someone too young to remember. Here is a special prayer to pray together with your family and loved ones.
May God's Mercy and Peace be with you,
Cathy, Deacon Louie, Beth, Liliana, Andy, Erika, Cindy and Rosario
Please share this email with anyone and everyone!
Together let us build, unite and grow our Church.

“Belong, Believe, Become is a concept of relationship-driven evangelization ministry that has, at its heart, the idea that true conversion begins when an individual is deeply connected to the parish community through committed relationships built on formation in the faith that is authentic, intentional, and accompanied, culminating in a community where every disciple is a missionary,” according Andy Baker, the diocese’s youth and young adult ministry coordinator. |
