What a great turnout we had last night at our first Palm Burning and Shrove Tuesday Pancake Supper! It was so great to see so many parishioners and school families. THANK YOU to our Youth Ministry Group who did a fantastic job setting up, cooking and cleaning - we estimate that these amazing students flipped and served about 500 pancakes to a packed hall. THANK YOU to our Baking Ministry who baked and decorated beautiful King's Cup Cakes and THANK YOU to members of our Liturgy Ministry who helped coordinate the evening!
We all want to make time for God, but sometimes we struggle to figure out a way to squeeze in the time amidst the busyness of life. It’s also simple human nature that we get in a rut or a routine and sometimes we need a “boost” to get moving. Lent is a new beginning and the Light of the World Retreat could provide that "boost" you might need!
Each of us has an innate desire to come to know God better. Luckily, God is not shy about revealing himself to us! Below, Rebecca shares her experience from the Light of the World Retreat and how God answered her prayer.
One of the most energizing programs offered through St. Mary's is the Light of the World Retreat. Geared toward Christians interested in renewing their faith, Light of the World truly rekindles Christ's flame inside each and every one of us. If you were to ask the over 90 St. Mary parishioners who have attended they will tell you that they have experienced a deeper more meaningful faith and a deeper personal relationship with Jesus Christ. In the coming weeks, we will share with you some of their personal testimonies and the impact the retreat has had on them. Click on the video below to listen to Jack's message.
