(St.

Augustine Church, Barberton, OH) (July 1, 2012) THIRTEENTH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME In times of crisis, sickness or death, families can be quickly overcome with panic and confusion as in the scene in todays Gospel. Purposely seeking God together in faith will dispel the fear and confusion and allow miracles to happen. (Insert graphic 1106-0086)
358 Holy Hours were kept before the Blessed Sacrament this past week. St. Augustine Church will be celebrating 50 years of perpetual Eucharistic Adoration this November. Perpetual means there is always someone before the Blessed Sacrament in prayer, every hour of every day and night. This is only possible if everyone truly understands that Jesus is present and is waiting for you! You do not have to be an adorer to sign in for a Holy Hour. I encourage everyone that makes a holy hour to sign in at the back of the church, I would also love to explain the Holy Hour program to you, please call Judy at 330-2120926.
