Parish Mission & Day of Reconciliation


Join us for our Lenten Parish Mission:
Power and Potential
Presenter: Jerry Galipeau
Jerry will be speaking at all Masses on March 2 & 3, and then each evening - March 3, 4, and 5 at 7:00 pm (more info HERE) 

This parish mission is sacrament-centered. Focusing on Baptism, Confirmation, and Eucharist, the mission will invite parishioners to discover/re-discover the power and potential of the gift of the sacramental life of the Catholic Church. This power and potential can help us strengthen our marriages and families, can make a difference in the way we interact with people at school and at work, and can provide a real spiritual boost for Catholics for whom the practice of the faith has become routine.
The Mission begins on the 3rd Sunday of Lent (March 2nd and 3rd) and continues with sessions at 7:00 in the evening on March 3rd, 4th, and 5th.  Light refreshments will follow the presentations each evening at 8:00 pm.

Jerry Galipeau is the Vice President and Chief Publishing Officer at J. S. Paluch Company and its music and liturgy division, World Library Publications, located in Franklin Park, Illinois. Jerry presents keynotes and workshops throughout the United States and Canada on the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults, liturgical spirituality, ritual music, evangelization, and adult spiritual formation. He earned the Doctor of Ministry with a concentration in liturgical studies from Catholic Theological Union at Chicago in 1999.

     8 - 11 am - at the Church
     11 am - 2:30 pm - At. St. Michael
