Get ready to grow in your faith life as we prepare to enter the Lenten season on Ash Wednesday, February 22.  On this and every Wednesday of Lent, we will, once again, have our popular soup and sandwich gathering at 5:00 p.m., followed by a presentation on our Catholic faith starting with some videos by Michael Cumby, a Catholic Lay Evangelist who is a former Evangelical minister.  We will then offer Mass at 6:15 p.m. each Wednesday during Lent.  Please also mark your calendar for Saturday, March 3, as we will have a Lenten Day of Reflection by Father Herold Brock, a missionary priest who will inspire with reflections on the life of Pope John Paul II.  We will continue the tradition of the Stations of the Cross every Friday in Lent at 6:15 p.m.  I urge you to take seriously these and other opportunities that will be offered during Lent, 2012.  The blessings for your life and the lives that you touch may be many.
