"OPENING OUR HEARTS TO HEAR THE VOICE OF GOD"
NOTE FROM THE DRE
Greetings Families,
March is here and so begins Lent! Lent is a season of prayer, fasting and giving. Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent and St. Mary has Mass is at 7 PM on March 2nd and all our welcome to join us. Our middle and high school youth will be attending as a class.
A special Lenten newsletter was emailed prior to provide information and events for Lent. It also can be found on the main page of our parish website. In class, your children have received or will receive a booklet for reflecting on Lent or praying the Stations of the Cross.
Grades 7-10 will be discussing and organizing a Lenten Service Project. More information will be forthcoming.
Our 2022 Confirmation class will celebrate in receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation on March 31st at 7 PM with Bishop Haines. They will be finishing up their retreat on March 16th. Let us all keep them in our prayers.
Blessings, Lesa Staehler, DRE
