JOURNEYING WITH ST. LUKE

Journeying with St. Luke (with Dr. Gerard Whitty, D.Min.)

Starting in Advent we will be proclaiming Luke’s Gospel every Sunday throughout the liturgical year, in Lent, Easter and Ordinary Time. We invite you to come together and take a journey with Luke as he paints a picture of Jesus for his context and culture. Using various dynamics we will explore what Luke underlines as important facets of Jesus’ life and ministry like the importance of contemplative prayer, of being a welcoming community, the role of women in his ministry, the meals Jesus shared, the importance of forgiveness and many more. Our first meeting will be in the Conference Room at the Basilica on Thursday, November 29th at 7:00 pm. We ask you to use the parking lot behind the Basilica which is accessible through the arch or behind St. Bon’s. From there we can enter the Basilica through the parish room and proceed upstairs to the conference room. Please call the parish office (754-2170) to register.​​​​​​​​

SAD NEWS

I regret to pass along some sad news. 

Brother Bern Madden's sister Philomena passed away yesterday morning. Grand Knight Puddister has offered the condolences and prayers of his fellow Knight’s at St. Paul’s

I also just learned that Father Flaherty's brother Jerome passed away late last week. The funeral was earlier today. Donations accepted to ALS Society. Grand Knight Puddister offers his sincerest condolences to Father Flaherty.

OCTOBER GENERAL MEETING

Good morning;

A nice fall day, the kind of weather where a good boiler of turkey soup would not go astray. 

 Grand Knight Puddister wanted me to remind everyone that we have our general meeting tonight. Rosary begins at 6:30, the meeting at 7:00.  

There will be a pot of turkey soup and tea following.

Another reminder, if you have not yet responded to Ray English regarding the upcoming BBQ and Dance please do so.

Regards

Peter
