Wednesday evening series on the Mass – 6:30 pm: This fall,
Mrs. Amy Dean has volunteered to lead a 7 week series on the
Mass for our High School students on Wednesdays from 6:30
– 8 pm, beginning NEXT Wednesday, October 29 and ending
Wednesday, December 17 (no session the week of Thanksgiving). They will gather in the youth house. The kids will be invited to consider what they are already experiencing when we
gather for Mass and to ponder what that experience means.
Mrs. Amy will lead our youth in better understanding the
structure and meaning of the Mass, forming and cultivating
attitudes that help them celebrate it, and developing skills that
promote their “full, conscious, and active participation” in the
Mass. This series is intended to serve as both a supplement and
a complement to our High School Bible class which meets
Sundays at 9:30 am in the youth house. All high school students are invited to participate and to invite a friend. For more
information, please contact Mrs. Amy Dean at 455-0606, dean3 [email protected]
