POP Moms
“The true way and the sure way to friendship is through humility – being open to each other, accepting each other just as we are, knowing each other.” Mother Theresa
The new POP Moms ministry is designed to encourage women to engage in faith filled friendships and to support each other in our vocation as mothers. We will meet Monday evenings beginning 16 January in the middle school building from 7:30p-9:30p. Our meetings will begin with a Rosary and meditation on Catholic motherhood, then allow for free discussion and enjoyment of one another’s company. If you have any questions, please contact Stephanie Lasitter, stephanie.lasitter@
Vespers
Join us for Vespers beginning this Sunday, 15 January.
From the earliest centuries of the Church, Christians gathered in the evening on the Lord’s Day to sing psalms, hymns and spiritual canticles. The official public evening prayer of the Church’s Liturgy of the Hours is Vespers, named after the Vesper Star that rises to herald the fall of night.
At Vespers, we sing five psalms; we listen to the Word of God, sing a hymn for the Evening. The highlight of the service is the Magnificat, the Canticle of Mary, in which the Altar and the Faithful are incensed as sign of honor and our prayers rising to God. After a prayer, we visit the Lady Altar to ask Mary’s protection during the night.
Sundays
15 January – 26 February
5p – 5.30p
