January is Poverty Awareness Month. Let us remember that, for over 50 years, the Catholic Campaign for Human Development has helped to combat poverty by empowering low-income families and communities and working to address the root causes of poverty in our country.  Let us raise our voices in prayer, in solidarity with our brothers and sisters in Christ.

"Come Holy Spirit and open our hearts, minds and souls to your presence. Grace us with strength to follow the examples of Jesus. Like Jesus may the spirit provide us with a voice to cry out for justice for the poor. Remind us that what  we do to the least of those amoung us, we do for you"

On behalf of our Catholic secondary school students, the Provost for Education, Evangelization, and Catechesis, Sr. Mary Grace Walsh ASCJ, Ph.D. would like to express sincere thanks to all those who participated in the 2020 High School Collection. We deeply appreciate your support of Catholic high schools as they pursue their mission of education and evangelization.

Christian Week Of Unity ~ January 19, 2020.  This weekend, occurring between the feasts of St. Peter and St. Paul, marks the beginning of the Christian Week of Unity, an ecumenical celebration inviting Christians around the world to pray for unity . The theme this year, “they showed us unusual kindness,” is based on a reading from the Acts of the Apostles (27:18-28:10). This week of prayer emphasizes that it is through this “unusual kindness” that Christians throughout the world are united as one. We are reminded that it is through a powerful and prayerful witness of faith that all churches are called to heed Jesus’ prayer “that they all may be one.” In a world filled with division, we invite you to take a moment each day this week to not only pray the daily prayer for unity, found on the parish website or at the entrances to the church, but to go out and shine a light into this world by simply showing unusual kindness to another.

Sunday, January 26, 12:30-2:30 PM
(NOTE NEW TIME)

HELP NEEDED! The Drive-Up Cafe at the Congregational Church, 35 South Main Street, is scheduled soon. We do not have enough meals or servers committed. Please contact Donna Bergman at 860-463-1120 to lend a hand.
