Prayer of the Faithful
A box will be placed in both Churches on Passion (Palm) Sunday for anyone who would like to place Prayers of Petition that will be included in the Prayer of the Faithful during the Holy Week and Easter ceremonies.

Real Life Angels
Real life angels build bridges instead of walls. Real life angels tend to be the only ones who know what you’re going through. If they sense that you’re hurting, they do whatever they can to help you. Real life angels understand difficulties and give the benefit of the doubt. Real life angels are what inner beauty is all about. They don’t hold things against you. The only thing they hold ..is you. They take your hand in theirs when you could use some reassurance. They walk beside you when you could use some guidance and direction in your life. And they support you in your attempts to do what is right. Real life angels multiply your smiles. If someone in your life is like and angel to you, you’re one of the luckiest people alive.
