Hi Everyone

1-Due to COVID and the ongoing restrictions, many of our parishioners, especially those who may have some underlying health issues,  have not been able to physically attend Mass and therefore have not received Communion in many months.

Beginning this weekend, on Sunday  January 10, you will be able to come to the back entrance of the church after having viewed the Virtual Mass at 11 am on our Facebook page,  https://www.facebook.com/stmaryscp/  ,to receive Communion from Fr. Cosmas.

Fr. will be there from 11:45 am to 12:45 pm.

Please remember to wear your mask and stay socially distanced from one another.

Parish Faith Formation Program – Divine Mercy Cenacle Group

We are excited to announce that we will be starting a Divine Mercy Cenacle Group in our parish. A Divine Mercy Cenacle is a group of people who meet weekly for song, prayer, and discussion on Scripture, the Catechism of the Catholic Church, and the writings of St. Maria Faustina, as a small Christian community. The revelations given to St. Maria Faustina are excellent for spiritual growth and also give a deeper understanding of our merciful Lord.

The group is being sponsored by the Catholic Women’s League, but is open to the whole parish. We plan to start the week of January 25, 2021. We will meet once a week through Zoom. Please indicate if you are interested in day time gathering or an evening. If there is enough interest, we may be able to offer both.

This is an excellent opportunity to grow in faith during this pandemic. We may not be able to gather physically but we can gather spiritually with the help of technology.

You will need a bible, catechism, the Diary of St. Faustina and the Cenacle Formation Manuals. The manuals are available at a cost of $15 and we will pick them up once we know our numbers. If you are need any of the other materials, please check out our parish library. There are three Cenacle Books in the series and we hope to continue with this wonderful ministry as Eucharistic Ministers of Devine Mercy. With the challenges we are facing, integral to know and understand God’s Mercy.

If you are interested, please call the office 613-257-1284 or Annette Meadows at 613-818-3243 to register. There will also be a sign-up sheet in the church.
