Saint Paal Catholic Charch Father Gerard Hurley, Pastor 5971 Highway 25 Flowood, MS 39232-7101 CHURCH OFFICE: 601.992.9547 Deacon Frank Agosta (Thursday) deacon@saintpaulcatholicchurch.com {cathy Port (IM, T, W, F) i¢e@saintpaulcatholicchurch.com ears a : 7:30AM except on Wednesdays Wednesday Ma Monday-Friday, 8:00AM-4; Wednesday evenings, 7:00PM-9: Sacrament of Reconciliation GREAT LENTEN OPPORTUNITIES! 1) Adults and Youth Pray the Rosary before the Mass on Wednesdays — for Vocations! 2) Take time each day to read the Daily Bible Readings. atl your Bible out on a table; visible! 3) Have Rice Bowls for every family—not just those in the Religious Education classes. }) | decided to make an effort to_attend Stations of the ross every Friday during Lent. There is NUT a better way to remind us of what Lent is really all about! | am made aware of what He really went through. (1 have been disappointed in the attendance in our Parish.) Once | made a decision ta REALLY work on myself during Lent, | specifically chose to work on my anger. | went to see a Counselor once a week for the six weeks of Lent—It made a huge improvement in my life! It was a Resurrection Experience. 8) | keep running a list of what I've done annually to cel- ebrate Tent, adding a positive Eien edC am ay Service activity each year to Prayer and Sacrifice. | oo! forward to making my annual choice of Charitable/ Coma Service; ce to DO for someone else. This year | am focusing on quilting for the Reihle family. 7) | know that |, myself, tend to prey for stuff that in- volves me, family members, and friends. Wouldn't it be neat though if everyone at St. Paul took an the task for Lent of praying for something important that doesn't directly involve them—intercessory prayer. We as a community could make a difference in the world if we all focused some intercessory prayer on important issues. For example, for Lent | am thinking of praying an extra Rosary every day so that more families might offer more support in pouring priestly vocations in their children, Someone else could pray one evenytiay for an end to abortion. It could be a simple aE ‘osary, no- vena, chaplet or whatever. There are a lot of situations that need God's grace in the world, like poverty, peace in the Middle East, people who struggle with addictions, mental illness, domestic violence, and so on. We each could take on the task of interceding for our brothers and sisters who suffer from such things. This Lent could be a great opportunity for the people of St. Paul Parish to make a big difference in the world. After all, St. Paul himself seid in Ga/atians that we are to "bear one an- other's burdens”. | hope this might give someone an idea of what to do or we could do this as a Parish pro- ject.
