Wed 6:30 -7:45pm at St. Paul’s Center for New Evangelization - facilitated by Fr. Andy Aaron. KIDS, can be dropped off at 615pm at the St. Paul’s church basement. Please let us know if you are coming with children so that we can adequately prepare. Space will be limited. Dates: Oct 2, 9, 16, 23, 30 & Nov 13. Contact Fr. Andy at aaaron@archbalt.org.
We also will have a TEACHING MASS, where we go through a real Mass and stop to explain the Mass and give the history and Scriptural connections, on TUES NOV 12 at 7:30pm in the chapel at Resurrection. All are invited.
Please come to the Pastorate FALL FESTIVAL at Resurrection 10am – 4pm on Sat Oct 5. Food, face painting, games, et al.
We will have blessing of the animals in honor of St. Francis of Assisi at two different times: 1pm on Sun Sept 29 at Resurrection and 2pm on Sun Oct 6 at 2pm.
We will have a ROSARY at 630pm on Fri Oct 11 at Resurrection sponsored by the ACTS ministry. And Fr. Andy will be there to help with one decade.
October is a month when we remember respect for life and also the Virgin Mary – maybe you can come to this rosary to pray for our nation to be touched by the gentle love of the Virgin Mary in how we treat all the vulnerable in our society – including the poor the unborn.
Finally, in preparation for our elections in November, I am not going to tell anyone how to vote, but I am going to keep on reminding you to go to read up on Catholic teaching and beliefs to get ready for the elections. The U.S. bishops have a document called FAITHFUL CITIZENSHIP that just goes over the issues. You can go to https://www.usccb.org/offices/justice-and-peace/forming-consciences-faithful-citizenship to find this document.
​
Peace!
Fr. Andy
