Thanksgiving Masses and Advent Wreath Craft

Wednesday, November 26, 2014

Did you ever stop to think what a wealthy country (even region of our country) you are blessed to live in?
Of the outpouring of community, health, rich food, social stability, and access to education that we have?
We all have troubles and crosses in daily life. We also enjoy innumerable blessings.

Could we find the strength to offer God a "sacrifice of praise" even if we had NONE of these blessings,
as many Catholics around the world do each day?

Join our Parish Community tonight at
7:00 pm for the Thanksgiving Eve Mass

Let's rejoice and THANK HIM!
And let's also set our hearts and our praise on the Lord, putting all things in the proper order,
to draw close to Him and learn how we should use these blessings as He wills.
Love and generosity always require sacrifice if they are to be truly good and enjoyed, having the power to change hearts and lives.
May His abundant blessings never fall on infertile ground.

"The rich and the poor have this in common: the Lord is the maker of them all."
(Proverbs 22:2)

Are you wondering what to do this weekend, once the food hangover has worn off?
Why not start the season of Advent off right, by coming to our parish's Advent Wreath Workshop on Sunday!
This craft will be held on Sunday, November 30th in the Saint Agnes School Hall, following the 9:00 and 10:30 am Sunday Masses.
Join us!
