Healing Service at Good Counsel February 2009

On the night of February 9th, we all met at the Good Counsel site for a night of prayer and healing, over a hundred of our parishioners gathered. The youth of our parish animated the opening part with an enactment of various situations in their lives, as well as ours, that need healing. Fr. Joe opened the moment for us to come and place our lives, our sorrows, our needs upon the Lord.

All Co-Missions Mid Year Formation

On the feast of the Presentation of the Lord, Feb 2nd, 2009, we had our formation night for the leaders of our co-missions. There was a good turn out and candlemas animated the evening. Fr. Joe led us with a review of the Annual Church Report, then all the Co-Mission directors gave a summary of the goals that were set from the last all co-missions meeting. The brilliance of the Light of Christ illumined all who were present.
