handed out in the church narthex March 8-9 ONLY AFTER
Masses. If you had your picture taken or submitted a photo with
$10, you are entitled to a book. Those that submitted a book

up a book (and photo when applicable). Beginning Mon., March

available to pick-up or buy for $10 each.
Immaculee’s return set during Lent
Immaculee Ilibagiza’s “Weekend of Hope and Healing” is
March 28-29, 2014, at St. Isidore Church. Details are available
ONLY at www.immaculee.com or by contacting Annette Micek at
402-750-0961 or [email protected].
FamilyTime
In this fast-paced world, let Lent stand for retreat, as it did
for the early Christians. One idea is to try slowing down by
giving up technology on Sundays. Instead of everyone burying
their noses in a computer, tablet or phone, talk a walk together
or play a board game as a family. What are some other ways
families can slow down this Lent?
