Parishioners are invited to write down their prayer intentions and offer them to Our Lady along with prayers of thanksgiving for her motherly love and intercession. You can place your prayer intentions in the baskets available in the front and back lobbies of the church before May 13th. Your intentions will be placed in front of our Blessed Mother’s statue by two of our First Communicants at the 10AM Mass on Mother’s Day, May 14th. As we celebrate the gift of mothers and honorOur Blessed Mother, we also recognize that Mother’s Day can be a difficult holiday for many. We hope this spiritual bouquet provides an opportunity to pray for the intentions brought to your heart by Mother’s Day. As a parish family, please pray for each other’s intentions.

Our young people were really eating it up! I am referring to Fr. Liam McDonald‘s presentation last week to our women’s group of the Starfish Coffee House, with his topic “Our Gifts of the Holy Spirit”; how each person can discover the gifts – or tools – God has given us to use in our own way to build up his kingdom.
