WE NEED YOUR HELP! Due to illness, limited mobility or just a time of need, many of our parishioners are unable to get out. We are forming a ministry called "Home Bound Connec-tion Ministry" to address this need. Please call us with names of parishioners who have no family near-by or who have become reclu-sive. This ministry is meant to be one of compassion and hospitality. Our goal is first to identify these parishioners. Here is where we need your help. We then will seek volun-teers to make a regular call to check on their well-being, make a connection with the parish and provide them with community resource information resources. Please call one of the following individuals with the parishioner's name, address and phone number. Parish Office 419-865-2345 Bonnie Tillman 419-865-4332 Donna Urban 419-861-3699
MISSING The Daughters of Mary banner and display pole came up missing the first week of December. If any-one has knowledge of the whereabouts please return to their niche in the Pantry. No questions will be asked. This banner has been with our organization for more than 50 years and has sentimental value. We would like to have it back as soon as possible. Thank you! Daughters of Mary Altar-Rosary Society
Change for Life "Baby Bottle Campaign Our Lady of Lourdes will once again be holding a Baby Bottle Drive to benefit Heartbeat of Toledo. Start gathering that loose change and pick up a baby bottle after Mass the weekend of February 10 - 11. Heartbeat is a life-affirming pregnan-cy center whose mission is to be the best source of information and sup-port for women facing pregnancies and to help mothers, fathers and ba-bies in need.
DIVORCED & SEPARATED SUPPORT GROUP & HEALING PROGRAM
Join us Thursday Feb. 1st and Thursday Feb. 15th at OLPH in meeting room 2 at 7 pm. OLPH and St. Joan of Arc Parishes are co- hosting an ongoing sup-port group for the divorced and separated.
Meetings will have 2 parts. From 7 to 8 PM we will view a video from the 12 part series entitled “The Catholic Di-vorce Survival Guide”. From 8 to 9 there will be a discus-sion and sharing for support. The series covers the topics of shock, denial, anger, grief, guilt, forgiveness, money, the courts, the kids, the ex-spouse, annulment, dating, sexuality, spirituality, re-marriage or staying single, and much more. Featured are Catholic men and women who share their emotional but inspiring stories of divorce and recovery, along with input from expert teachers, counse-lors and authors. You'll cry, laugh and be encouraged.
Whether you divorced ten years ago, ten days ago or are still in the separation stage, the program offers valuable insight to help comfort, counsel and bring clarity to your life. For questions or to register contact Sandy Stricker at 419-865-9704 or Vicki Sweeney at 419-865-0085.

To help make Baptism a truly meaningful ceremony, parents are asked to attend a Baptismal Preparation Class. This can be done before the birth of the baby. It is important for parents to understand the Sacrament, the ceremony, and the responsibilities that follow. The next Baptismal Prep Session will be February 5th at 7:00 p.m. in the Lourdes Room. To register for the class or to schedule a Baptism, call the Parish Office at 419-865-2345. All parents must take a class before their child is baptized.
Tired of writing checks? It’s not too late to sign up for automatic withdrawal for your contributions. Sign up forms are available in the parish office. We are happy to mail out a form to you if you wish.
40 Days for Life Campaign Begins February 14 Catholic Charities is hosting the ecumenical 40 Days for Life campaign in Northwest Ohio from February 14 through March 25. You can participate in three ways: prayer and fasting, community outreach and peaceful vigil. We invite you to pray for an hour in front of Capi-tal Care Network, the Toledo abortion clinic, located at 1160 W. Sylvania Avenue. Sign up at: www.40daysforlife.com/toledo. Since the international 40 Days for Life Campaign began in 2007, over 750,000 volunteers in over 40 nations have stood in prayerful witness at abortion clinics to witness to the dignity of human life. Through these prayerful campaigns, over 14,000 lives have been saved, 170 abortion workers have quit their po-sitions, and 90 abortion facilities have shut down! To learn more, email Peter Range at [email protected]. Join the movement, and help us end abortion in Northwest Ohio!
Whenever a county/city within the Diocese of To-ledo is placed under a Level 3 Snow Emergency, during which all roadways are closed to non-emergency personnel, the Catholic Churches within that geographic region will cancel the scheduled Sat-urday Vigil, Sunday, or Holy Day Masses. Roman Catholics in that region, therefore, are dispensed from the obligation to attend Mass. If Masses are can-celled, Catholics are encouraged to participate in Ho-ly Mass via television, radio, or internet, making a spiritual Communion. When Mass is cancelled, all other diocesan, parish, or school events in that geo-graphic region are also cancelled.
Thursday, February 15 Catholic Business Net-work: “Finding Faith In the Midst of Business” You’re invited to the next Catholic Business Network breakfast, Thursday, Feb. 15.

The free event will be held at St. Joan of Arc’s Atrium, 5856 Heatherdowns Blvd., Toledo, OH. Registration, networking and a free continental breakfast at 7 a.m. precedes the hour-long program at 7:30 a.m. Limited seating is available, so please register early. Register online at Eventbrite Toledo: https://faith-in-business-toledo.eventbrite.com. Or call Kate Pomren-ke at 419.214.4898; or email [email protected].

Mary Manse College Think back a few years. Do you remember someone-your Mother, Grandmother, Aunt, Sister-talking about attending the former Mary Manse College on Colling-wood Avenue? Now is your opportunity to help keep that legacy alive.
