Next weekend, November 16/17, is the collection for the Catholic Campaign for Human Development. Through this appeal, you help people living in poverty and struggling on the margins of society by giving them a hand. One fourth (25%) of the funds received remain with Catholic Charities of Arkansas to assist our poor and vulnerable. Thank you, in advance, for your generous response.
The sisters of the Holy Cross, Notre Dame, Indiana, would like to thank you. We appreciate your in-kind donations of cancelled US and foreign stamps. Your donation makes a world of difference! Thank you for support of our ministry. You are in our prayers. God Bless!
Eucharistic Adoration offers a sacred time of stillness. By spending time in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament, it allows us to step away from the noise and busyness of daily life. It provides an opportunity to lay burdens before God, pray for loved ones and seek guidance. In this quiet space, hearts are open to a deeper awareness of God's presence and love. This stillness provides peace to the heart, calms anxieties and bring clarity to the mind. Eucharistic Adoration is a gift that invites us to pause, reflect and engage in a deep personal connection through prayer and reflection. Contact Mike Ritch regarding PEA 832 231-7469
Dr. Tim Gray wrote a book that delves into the biblical origins for each of the sacraments. Gray helps readers understand that Christ's deliberate acts were to inaugu-rate these sacred signs. He does this by guiding his readers through the Gospels. Go to "Sacraments in Scripture" by Tim Gray on your subscription to Formed to obtain this book. If you haven't signed up for your free parish subscription to Formed, go to www.FORMED.org and register.
This special collection is taken up in all parishes nationwide Nov. 30/Dec. 1. Thousands of elderly sisters, brothers and religious order priests have spent years working in Catholic schools, hospitals, parishes and agencies, often for little pay. Their sacrifices leave their communities without adequate savings for elder care or retirement. Your gift provides for those who have given their entire life. For more information call 501 664-0340.
