After the dedication of our chapel this past Sunday by Most Reverend Bp. Mark A. Pivarunas, CMRI, Fr. Sandquist offered a High Mass for the feast of Our Lady’s Visitation. The Congregation Mater Dei Sisters sang for the dedication and the Mass.
Bp. Pivarunas delivered the sermon on charity that is embedded above. His Excellency is a wonderful storyteller and in this talk he pulls together a story from 1999 and one from this year to illustrate the lesson that everyone is our neighbor.
This could be a life-changing experience for a boy you know.
The St. John Bosco Catholic summer camp in NE Ohio will be held July 23-29. Boys from age 9 to 18 can come; younger if accompanied with a dad or guardian. Please note there is a registration deadline this year: June 15th. Email for more information and registration forms.
Grandparents, this is a great gift-giving opportunity–Christmas in July or however you want to frame it–whether you pay the fees or help with transportation or both.
This Sunday, April 23, Mass will be at 8 am. No afternoon Mass. What lovely thing will you do with your afternoon?
Our very first Holy Week–with heartfelt gratitude to CMRI priests Fr. Stephen Sandquist and Fr. Timothy Geckle, Mater Dei seminarians Dominic Lehnen and Philip Lawrence, Congregation Mater Dei Sisters Mary Catherine and Josephine Marie, and our own Ben Geckle for making all our ceremonies especially reverent and lovely.
