WORLD MISSION SUNDAYToday, with Catholics all around the world, we are called to offer, at this Eucharistic celebration, our prayers and generous financial support, through the Propagation of the Faith, to continue the mission of our Lord. $25.00 helps support a catechist for a month. $75.00 provides for the work of the Religious Sisters. $100 is a month's help for a village mission. As always, your prayers are your most treasured gift to the Missions. Today, World Mission Sunday, through your prayers and financial help, you accompany the priests and religious and lay people in the Missions who are Christ's witnesses to a world so in need of His healing love and peace. |

PERPETUAL EUCHARISTICADORATION NEWS Excerpts from the writing of Pope John Paul II: "The Birth of Jesus at Bethlehem is not an event which can be consigned to the past. The whole of human history in fact stands in reference to Him: our own time and the future of the world are illumined by His presence. HE IS THE LIVING ONE, WHO IS, WHO WAS AND WHO IS TO COME. In the encounter with Christ, every man discovers the mystery of his own life." Let us encounter Christ in the Adoration Chapel - open 24 hours for our visits. The Adoration Chapel is located in the convent of Holy Cross. For more information call 763-788-4729 or 612- 781-4806. Thank you. |
