February 1, 2023Spirituality Class in February
“Our next Spirituality Class begins in February 2023. The subject is the spirituality of St. John of the Cross, one of Christianity’s great poets and mystics and celebrated within the Church as the “Mystical Doctor.” We will be reading “The Ascent of Mount Carmel: Reflections” by Marc Foley, OCD, a Carmelite priest, psychologist, and the prior of the Carmelite Monastery in Washington, DC. Our class will meet on Wednesdays in February: 1, 8, 15, and 22 from 7:00 to 8:00 PM in the Parish Hall Media Room. We have 5 remaining donated (no cost to you) copies of the book available.

Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Fifth Sunday in Ordinary Time
All Day
February 5, 2023Jesus said to his disciples:
"You are the salt of the earth.
But if salt loses its taste, with what can it be seasoned?
It is no longer good for anything
but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.
You are the light of the world.
A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden.
Nor do they light a lamp and then put it under a bushel basket;
it is set on a lampstand,
where it gives light to all in the house.
Just so, your light must shine before others,
that they may see your good deeds
and glorify your heavenly Father."
