Council of Catholic Women
Join us the third Tuesday of each month, September thru May for Mass at 6:00 P.M., followed by a 6:30 P.M. meeting and light refreshments.
Are you registered in the parish? Please do not take for granted that you are registered in the parish just because you attend mass here. If we have no record of your parish membership it could be quite embarrassing to us, or to you or your family, when someone wishes to make wedding plans, have a baby baptized, or if you have been asked to act as a sponsor for baptism or confirmation. Please fill out a census form, which is located at the entrances of the Multi Celebrational Building (MCB), and mail it to the parish office, or place it in the collection basket.
Baptism
Baptisms are celebrated on Sunday after the 12:00 Noon Mass. Parents must be registered and active members of the parish for at least three months. No confirmed dates are given before approval by the pastor. Contact the parish office two months in advance. Godparents must be confirmed, practicing, Roman Catholics and must obtain a sponsor certificate from their parish. In order to avoid disappointments, do not book travel plans with family, Godparents, etc. until a confirmed date has been assigned through the parish office (561) 966-8878.
Marriages
Notify the parish office at least four months in advance.
Ministrations to the Sick
We appreciate knowing when a parishioner is in the hospital or homebound. Please call the parish office.
LOST AND FOUND
Welcome to Lost and Found Sunday ! Just in case being in church makes us proudly consider ourselves especially religious, today's Gospel suggests that we'd be wiser to admit that we're sometimes lost. Then we'll eventually be happily counted among Jesus’ found, because today Jesus focuses on a lost sheep, lost coin, lost son. Jesus does so because the Pharisees and scribes, proudly consider-ing themselves especially religious, began to complain that Jesus welcomes sinners and eats with them. So Jesus warns them--and us--to stop judging others. Marvel instead that God's amazing grace has found us! Indeed, we should become Jesus friends lovingly trying to find others. So Exodus asks, if God relented in punishment and pardoned us, shouldn't we forgive fellow sinners graciously? Even Paul admits his arrogance as foremost among sinners. We too, happy at being mercifully treated, should share with everyone else Jesus unfailing patience.
Why should your wrath blaze up against your own people, whom you brought out of Egypt? (Exodus 32:7-11, 13-14).
I will rise and go to my father (Psalm 51).
The grace of our Lord has been abundant (1 Timothy 1:12-17).
There is great rejoicing in heaven and among the angels when a sinner repents (Luke 15:1-32 [1-10]).
