THE POPE’S MONTHLY INTENTIONS March 2019

Evangelization - Christian Communities

That Christian communities, especially those who are persecuted, feel that they are close to Christ and have their rights respected.

Rosary Prayer Intentions for March

(provided by Our Legions of Mary)

SPECIAL March Rosary Intentions: that parishioners realize

that when they pray together in church, Jesus is with them (Where two or more are gathered in my name, so shall I be.)…that those who are persecuted for their beliefs seek refuge with Christ through their fervent prayers (especially when saying the rosary each day)…that we include in our prayerful intentions strength and vigilance for the ridiculed, the down-trodden, the abused and the rejected…that we remember to realize that all of us are deeply connected with Christ and with each other, even if we have disagreements and different points of view in our politics or world perceptions…that all communities throughout the world are inextricably bonded together in the Mystical Body of Christ…and, that we become more fully aware that the Blessed

Mother is the greatest intercessor to her Son, and therefore, call upon her when we have feelings of isolation and abandonment from others, so that we may spiritually reunite with them in our lives.

ON-GOING Personal Rosary Intentions

Joyful Mysteries for the unborn, newly born, young children,

teenagers, families and friendships. Luminous Mysteries for the newly baptized, those receiving

confession and the Holy Eucharist for the first time, newlyweds and those already married – love/peace/unity – now and forever. Sorrowful Mysteries for the sick and suffering, the dying, the

oppressed, the tortured, the persecuted, the lonely, the abandoned and the depressed. Glorious Mysteries for the souls in purgatory, forgotten souls,

newly confirmed and ALL life, the intercession of Mary to Jesus for our daily intentions and the requested intentions of others.

EASTER SACRAMENTS

We have five candidates preparing to receive Confirmation during the Easter Vigil through the process of the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults. Please pray for Katherine, Maggi, Genny, Emma-Rose and Trevor as they continue their Lenten Retreat – final days of preparation. Each of them will share with us a bit of their faith journey in the bulletin in the coming weeks.

The reasons that I, Genevieve Giardiello, would like to receive my Confirmation, are as follows: I want my relationship with God to be stronger. I want to learn more about all the wonderful things God does. This is also a milestone in my faith journey. Lastly, I want to be the Godmother to my niece and teach her about the importance of having God and faith in her life.

FOOD PANTRY ITEM OF THE WEEK

Please remember the pantry when you do your own shopping.

An item a week from many will keep us full.
