Young Adult Ministry at St. Michael’s

April 15th, 2012 | Posted by K Graham in Uncategorized - (Comments Off on Young Adult Ministry at St. Michael’s)

We welcome all members that are age 18 -25 (single or married) to join our new Facebook group… https://www.facebook.com/groups/216799331758381/

We hope to have a meeting soon, but for now look us up Facebook!

This ministry is something that many Catholic churches now have. It is a way for us to get more involved in St. Michael’s community and also the christian community at large. We plan to use Facebook and monthly meetings to get to know each other, grow through continuing to learn about God and Our Church, and to help with any needs that may arise at St. Michael’s.

For more information, you can contact Sienna Paoni or Father Roger.

Easter Weekend

April 7th, 2012 | Posted by K Graham in Uncategorized - (Comments Off on Easter Weekend)

“Once more we are ushered into this another opportunity to experience the richness of God’s mercy and love as we recall His Passion, Death,and Resurrection. You must be familiar with the Latin phrase “Paschal Triduum.” “Paschal” (Latin, paschalis = of or pertaining to the Passover) is the adjective formed from the English word “Pasch”, a preferable alternative to the more common “Easter” (Greek and Latin, Pascha, from the Hebrew Pesah or Pesach = Passover). The Latin word “triduum” is a space or  period of three days which includes the Lord’s Supper on Holy Thursday, the Lord’s death on Good Friday, and His Resurrection on Easter Sunday. Because this is a week where we are given a chance to experience God’s divine love more deeply in our lives, it is my hope that we will devote our hearts and minds to penance, reflection, and worship more specifically during this three days. On Holy Saturday, we believe that our Lord is not yet risen from the dead. It has been a part of our Catholic tradition to observe a solemn silence and devote our time to prayer and reflection during this day.”   Excerpt from April 1st Notes From the Pastor
