We also offer a special program for Catholics who have lost touch with
the Church under the banner Catholics Can Always Come Home!
Catholics Can Always Come
Home
No matter how long you
have been away and no matter what reason, we invite you to consider
renewing your relationship with the Catholic Church. Catholics Can
Always Come Home sessions are offered throughout Lent in a
non-threatening, non-judgmental support-group type format. The program
is led by parishioners who themselves have left the church and have
returned. Call
846-5301 or 846-5584.
COME
and TAKE ANOTHER LOOK at the CHURCH:
There are as many
reasons for leaving the Church as there are inactive Catholics. Would
you help us by extending a loving hand and a warm smile to someone you
know that might be inactive, and let them know that we have a wonderful
program? Invite them to come and take another look at the Church. It is
an informal gathering and sharing led by parishioners who themselves
have left the church (former active Catholics) and have returned. The
topics of discussion are determined by the interest and questions of the
participants. Call the Rectory (846-5584) for more information.
Catholics Can Always
Come Home is a program to help people who have been away from the Church
to come back and feel welcomed. It is designed for people who have
left the Church because of past hurt, misunderstandings, or
un-reconciled marriage situations. It is also for adults who have
just drifted away from active participation in the Church and would like
to begin again and may need some information or support.
We encourage you to
invite friends, family or neighbors who might like an invitation to
return.
This is a program that
exists all year long, not just during Lent. For more information, please
contact Jean Bissonnette at 846-5301 or the rectory, 846-5584. For
