Group Picture This Saturday, May 14, 2016

Since this is our last meeting for the year, we will take a group picture at this Saturday's session.  Smile.

BOB Dodeka Project - Father Ed Judy House

As I mentioned last Saturday, the Father Ed Judy House will be moving from Fort Logan to the old convent at St. Bernadette's.  The Father Ed Judy House works with women and children who are coming from difficult circumstances.  For more information, click here: https://fejh.wordpress.com/.

We may have the opportunity to help with this ministry when it moves to St. Bernadette's.  I'd like to get a preliminary indication of interest to see if it is worth pursuing, so if this speaks to your heart, please email me to let me know of your tentative interest. There are a lot of details to be determined still, but if we have enough interest, I will continue to pursue it with Catholic Charities.  It may also be a good ministry for those of us who have teenagers as well.

Please contact me if you think you might be interested.

Thanks for your prayerful consideration.

Saturday, May 7 - Peter: Cornerstone of Catholicism Session 9 - Peter Bar Jonah

In session 9 this week, we realize Peter was raised to be a faithful Jew.  “In the light of Jesus’ teaching, however, he has to reconsider numerous things he once thought settled.  For example, the Temple was expected to last forever, but Jesus prophesied it destruction.  The Messiah was expected to unshackle the Jews from Roman slavery and reestablish the kingdom of David, but instead, Jesus offered freedom from slavery to sin and an eternal Kingdom greater than David’s.  Instead of the glory of a throne, Jesus was glorified on a Cross.  Now, as the head of the Church, Peter will be led b y Jesus to the city of Joppa, where he will yet again be called to reconsider and deepen his understanding.”

“So then, brethren stand firm and hold to the traditions which you were taught by us, either by word of mouth or by letter.” 

-2 Thessalonians 2:25
