Grieving with Great Hope is a grief support program and a healing ministry developed by John and Sandy O'Shaughnessy; they are the co-founders of Good Mourning Ministry, a Catholic Bereavement Apostolate. John is a Certified Grief Counselor and author of five books. Sandy is a Director of Religious Education with a master's degree in Pastoral Ministry (Bereavement Emphasis). They are grief educators, but in this series, you will learn they have experienced profound grief themselves. As a FORMED subscriber, you can access all 5-sessions of this series. This series also comes with a Participant's Workbook and a Leader-Guide which walks you through the program from early planning, to preparation and implementation. This series is prayerful, practical, and personal. It has helped thousands of people who are grieving the loss of a loved one. The title comes from 1 Thessalonians 4:13, in which St. Paul tells the Thessalonians, "Let us not grieve as others who have no hope." And though faith can give us a confident expectation that this is not our home, it does not prevent grief and suffering in this life. Jesus said many times, "Take up your cross and follow me." This series teaches that grief is a natural reaction to loss, and mourning is our intentional response. Mourning is what we do with the pain we feel. It introduces The Seven Intentions of Mourning, each having its own unique purpose in helping to heal our wounds when someone we love dies. This series is designed for group discussions; as such, during the first four sessions, there is time for six "Grief Peer Group" discussions, where participants can share their own stories in a safe and validating environment.

School CCD CLASSES
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and
keeping the safety of our children and
catechists in mind it has been
determined that we will be going
VIRTUAL for AT LEAST half of
the CCD calendar year.
To accommodate this transition, we
will be offering LIVE classes via
ZOOM on DIFFERENT days of the
week. The need for a WORKING
EMAIL address to be submitted to
the church at registration IS
VITAL! Here is the schedule:
Monday – 6th grade – 7:00p.m.
Tuesday – 7th grade – 7:00p.m.
Thursday – 8th grade – 7:00p.m.
Sunday – C1 – 10:15a.m.
Sunday – C2 – 12:45p.m.
All classes will be ONE HOUR.
Attendance is vital as each class will
have assigned work to be submitted
and attendance will be kept.

A Brief Note from the Office of Youth Ministry
STEUBENVILLE LONE STAR 2021
At this time, we are looking to make arrangements to attend this year’s conference in
Dallas, TX. In March, we will have an idea of what the “restrictions” will be on both the conference itself and on the transportation to and from the event. Cost will remain the
same $400 per individual. At this point, the ones we will be taking FIRST are those who had already paid into the trip last year. Once the FINAL numbers of how many we
can accommodate are released, we will begin accepting NEW applications. We will expect that ALL restrictions, guidelines, will be FOLLOWED 100% by all who intend to
attend. Look in future bulletin announcements for further update.
