Women's Bible Study: Activated Disciple Practice Is Over. It’s Game Time. Thursday Sept 28th @ 6 PM

 

The Activated Disciple teaches you how to imitate God, so you can become an instrument for him to transform the world. If you yearn for a life that moves beyond believing and practicing, if you yearn to become an “activated” disciple, then this book study is for you. The Activated Disciple learns to walk in the ways of the Lord. Discipleship requires such a close relationship with God that every area of your life is transformed. By imitating God, disciples become the instruments God employs to transform the world. In The Activated Disciple by Jeff Cavins, you’ll learn how to…Take your faith to the next level. Transform every area of your life to become more like Christ. Overcome the obstacles that keep you from being the disciple you are called to be. Move beyond believing and practicing your faith, and begin radically living it.All women are invited to come! We will be meeting in the social hall twice a month. Please order your materials at The Activated Disciple by Jeff Cavins [Book] – Ascension click on the image above for the link and see you then!

Catholic Cafe - Begins September 24 @ 9:15 AM

 

All of us have had moments when we’ve thought to ourselves, “Why am I here? What am I supposed to be doing with my life?” If you’ve ever asked yourself questions like these, we invite you to join Deacon Mark for a 5 week book study “Anointed for Mission” – that will explore the gift and call of baptism. Through weekly readings, short videos, and guided discussion with other parish members, you’ll discover your irreplaceable role in the unfolding of God’s amazing plan to draw all humanity together in Christ and build his kingdom on earth. You’ll walk away from this series with a deeper sense of how God may be inviting you to advance the Church’s mission, and with a hope-filled vision to inspire our parish to greater levels of unity and service. Books will be provided, sign up in the commons.

The Eucharistic Revival is a national movement to renew the Church by enkindling a living relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ in the Holy Eucharist.

THIS WEEK ON FORMED

Give FORMED a Try

Holy Name of Mary is proud to offer the on-line formation program FORMED

Can you Serve? Liturgical Ministers needed.

Holy Name of Mary has a small number who help each Mass run smoothly by giving of their time to serve as Ushers, Altar Servers, Extraordinary Ministers of the Eucharist, Lectors, and Mass Coordinators.  Now that we have returned to our regular weekly Mass schedule additional help is needed.  All Liturgical Ministers are assigned on a rotation basis to avoid having any one person serve every weekend.  Currently, to completely meet the ministry needs of the Parish help is needed at all  weekday and Sunday Masses.

Please take some time to consider how you might be able to help in any of these roles.  As each one has received a gift, use it to serve one another as good stewards of God’s varied grace. 1Peter 4:10.  Many are called, will you answer?  If you could help or have questions please contact Debbie Cirre at [email protected] or by calling the Church Office.

Please Be Aware of Scam Attempts!

Please ignore any texts or emails that state they are from Fr. Nixon asking for a favor. Father Nixon does not text or email asking for favors, especially money or gift cards. Be aware that they are a scam! Be Safe!
