How’s it been going so far? Have you been keeping up your
fast? Have you made it to confession yet? Have you been
keeping strong with your daily penance and self-denial?
Did you start off strong but are now down to a fizzle?
You might just need to shake up your Lenten rou ne a li le.
These helpful ideas listed below are taken from
the Magnificat Year of Faith Companion, entry wri en by Fr.
Peter John Cameron, O.P.
On Mondays – Medita ve Prayer
Set aside a small amount of me to pray by yourself and in
silence.
On Tuesdays – Fas ng
Choose one day of the week to fast. Offer your sacrifice for
specific inten ons.
BEREAVEMENT MINISTRY
On Wednesdays – Charitable Works of Mercy
Use this day to go out of your way to care for the poor, the
needy, and the lonely–even if something very small.
On Thursdays – Eucharis c Adora on
Bring all your prayer requests and the needs of your family and
friends to the Adora on chapel.
On Fridays – Study the Faith
Start with those areas of doctrine which you need to
understand be er. Use the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Year of Mercy Event Saturday March 12 - Pilgrim Walk to St. John's
Cathedral - A Diocesan Church of the Holy Doors
In this Jubilee Year of Mercy, passing through a Holy Door is part of the pilgrimage that all Catholics are
encouraged to make. These pilgrimages come with special graces, and they allow each of us to share in the
many blessings of the Holy Year.
Please join us as we walk together from OLPH to St. John's Cathedral on Saturday March 12th. We will
depart from OLPH at 7:00am and Mass will be celebrated at the Cathedral by Fr. Robert at 10:30am.
Following Mass, there will be fellowship and refreshments in the basement available until 1:00pm.
We will have cars stationed at each mile marker, and a shuttle vehicle to transport people to the Cathedral if
they are unable to finish the walk.
The route is approximately 9.5 miles. Pilgrims will need to provide their own water.
We need your Help!
We need walkers, and we need an organizer for the fellowship. We also need additional fellowship volunteers who would not
be participating in the walk to set up, etc.
We will have some cars at the Cathedral to shuttle people back to OLPH, but if your family is planning to walk, you may want
to park one car at the Cathedral, and one at OLPH.
All drivers (unless transporting immediate family only) and walkers need to have the proper paperwork filled out, which is
available in the parish office, or you can email Elaine [email protected]
Please note that a Pilgrim Walk is not required in order to come celebrate the Mass at the Cathedral. Additionally, anyone
entering through a Holy Door of any of our designated churches in our Diocese enters through a Door of Mercy, experiencing
the love of God who consoles, pardons, and instills hope.
Help Make People Feel Welcome at our
Church…
Become an Usher!
The house of the Lord is like our own home, and as with any
feast, we strive to welcome each person at the door, as Christ welcomes
us. We have many dedicated people who serve in this very important
ministry of gree ng and ushering.
We have a great need for more ministers, so that each of us
feels this warm welcome from the first moment of our arrival. Won't
you prayerfully discern whether you may be called to this ministry?
Ushers are an integral ministry, doubling as greeters, sea ng
people during Mass, taking up the collec on, helping the ministers of
the Eucharist by direc ng communion lines and also by leading the
ministers to those who are unable to walk to communion. Another
important task of the ushers is to keep a watchful eye as a guardian of
the Eucharist and of the gi s of the people in the form of the collec on.
If you cannot fulfill the du es of the usher during Mass, we
would love for you to u lize your gi s of a warm smile and caring heart,
as you serve as a greeter to our brothers and sisters coming to the feast
of the Lord.
If you feel called to either of our hospitality ministries, please
call Jacqui at the parish office, and thank you for dona ng your me and
talent to your church.
