Lenten Parish Mission
March 7 & 8 at 7:00PM
How Great Thou Art
Presented by Fr. Ed Shea
Sunday—March 7: Open Our Eyes, Lord
The movement from blindness to sight must have been an important theme in the early Church, as there are 6 different versions of the story in the Gospels. This Talk will invite us to take seriously our own movement in the spiritual life, and invite us to allow the eyes of our hearts to continue to be enlightened (Ephesians 1:17).
Monday—March 8: Blessed Are The Merciful
Starting with Matthew 5 and moving to Matthew 25, this Talk calls us to understand more deeply what it means for us to be a “Beatitudes” people. It’s not enough for us as Christians to simply follow the 10 commandments; the Beatitudes call us to a deeper way of living out our vocation. The focus for tonight will be on God's abundant Mercy.
Sign up thru the parish website to attend the Mission, or watch via Livestream on the parish Facebook Live page.
