“Faith is a foretaste of the knowledge that will make us blessed in the life to come.” — St. Thomas Aquinas
Grade 7 and 8 students; please join us this Tuesday March 20th 7-9pm in St Mary’s School as we learn more about Our Lord’s Passion, Death and Resurrection in preparation for Holy Week and The Easter Triduum. We will come to better understand the words we recite every Sunday in our profession of faith, The Apostles’ Creed, “He suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. He descended into hell. On the third day he rose again.” And we will learn why St. Athanasius calls Easter “the Great Sunday” and the Eastern Churches call Holy Week “the Great Week.” We will also put our skills to work as we prepare treats for an upcoming visit with the residents at Extendicare and Lakelands Village.
High school students please join us for our next meeting Friday March 23rd. 7-9pm, St Mary’s Church and School when we will have the great privilege of welcoming the Franciscan Friars of the Renewal. The Friars will join us as we recite the Stations of the Cross and will remain with us for our meeting; for discussion, social time and fellowship. The Friars will also be with us as we conclude our time together with Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament and the opportunity for Confession.
