Gifted Hands
Fortnight for Freedom
Each year dioceses around the
country arrange special events to
highlight the importance of defending
religious freedom.
Star!ng June 21 to July 4, we ask you to gather, learn,
pilgrimage, and pray, pray, pray daily!
The Fortnight for Freedom Opening Mass will be celebrated by
Archbishop William Lori on Tuesday, June 21 at 7:00 pm. The
Closing Mass will be celebrated by Cardinal Donald Wuerl, with
Bishop David Zubik of Pi&sburgh delivering the homily, on
Monday, July 4 at noon. Both Masses will be televised
na!onwide on EWTN and the Catholic TV Network.
If we can be forced by the government to provide coverage for
contracep!on, abor!on and steriliza!on, then we are not free in
our conscience or our prac!ce of religion, and all other freedoms
are fragile and at risk.
The Novena following Mass on
Wednesday, June 22, is for Dignity of the Family.
We will be breaking for summer and there
will be no mee!ngs in June, July or August.
We s!ll need yarn dona!ons and you may
drop off your dona!ons at the Parish Office
or you may call Cherlyn Bradley
at 365-9589 or Rebecca Whalen at
728-4835.
Gi$ed Hands is a ministry of the
parish established to give comfort to those in nursing homes,
hospitals and shut-ins. We thank you for your support!
YEAR OF THE ROSARY
FOR MERCY
We are now on a once a month
schedule.
The next meeting is July 6.
Does your child need prayers? Put
him/her into the arms of the Blessed
Mother. She will never fail to give you back your child.
As you pray the Rosary, change the “Hail Mary” to say
“Holy Mary, Mother of God,” pray for (your child’s name
here), now and at the hour of (his/her) death. Amen.
If you cannot make rosaries, please consider a donation
to the Rosary Makers. For more information, contact
MARY at 638-2747 or DIANNE at 874-0058.
