CURRENT NEWS
“To have hope doesn’t mean being naïve optimists who ignore the tragedy of human evil. Hope is the virtue of a heart that doesn’t close itself in the dark, doesn’t stop at the past, doesn’t scrape along in the present, but can clearly see tomorrow.” ―Hope: The AutobiographyWe are deeply saddened by the loss of Pope Francis. As a community we mourn, yet hope in the resurrection.
Let us continue to be Pilgrims of Hope as

This weekend the annual Diocesan Appeal begins. The theme is Together in Mission. The Appeal is a diocese-wide effort to support the essential ministries, formation, and outreach throughout our 23 counties. It is a powerful opportunity to unite as one Church and one Body of Christ to share in our call to be good stewards of our Church and its people.

We are resurrecting this wonderful ministry and would like to compile a list of people willing to pray intentionally (from home) for parishioners (and others) so that, when a prayer request comes in, 'pray-ers' will be alerted right away. If this is a ministry to which you feel called, or you want more information, contact Niqui Beckrum at nbeckrum@gmail.com.

contact Chris Meacham, SFA Finance Chair at 614-561-6510 or chris@automotiveintegration.com if you have questions.MASS INTENTIONS The greatest, most powerful and charitable prayer we have in the Catholic Church is the Eucharistic celebration called the Holy Mass, the Breaking of the Bread. Mass Intentions may be requested for Sundays, most holy days, and weekdays throughout the year for the living and the dead, or in thanksgiving for God's blessings in life such as a birthday, a wedding anniversary, during a time of illness, etc. Requesting a Mass is not only a sign of our flourishing faith, but of our generous heart for those who say these Masses. Mass offerings in the Diocese are typically $10 and can be scheduled by calling or emailing the parish office.
