Parish Mission: The Prodigal Son

It has been said that if all the Bibles in the world and all the words of God suddenly disappeared, and if only The Parable of the Prodigal Son remained, it would be enough of the Gospel to guide Christians in the Way of Christ.

Parish  Mission:  “The Parable of the Prodigal Son – A New Perspective”                                                                                         
Presented by Deacon Benedict LoCasto

Please join us to more deeply explore the meaning of the Parable of the Lost Son, the Jealous Older Brother, and the Merciful Father. 

The Mission will be presented over three nights.                                                   
Attend for one hour all three nights, or whatever nights you can.

There will be an opportunity to receive the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

January 1: A Holy Day of Obligation
The Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God On January 1, Catholics honor Mary’s unique role in salvation history with the Solemnity of Mary, Mother of God, a Holy Day of Obligation. This feast underscores Mary’s title as Theotokos, or “God-bearer,” a doctrine officially declared at the Council of Ephesus in 431. At the close of the council, the faithful filled the streets, joyfully proclaiming, “Praised be the Theotokos!” Mary’s title as “Mother of God” is rooted in the Incarnation, where, as St. Paul teaches: “...
