Sunday, Feb. 12th
6th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Matthew 5:17 – 37
“…whoever is angry with his brother”Fr. Patrick’s Holy Homework
This week pray intentionally for ten minutes every day
to be aware of God’s presence in you and through you.
The word “confidence” comes from two Latin words
that literally mean “with faith”.
Aware of the power of God’s presence
working in and through us,
we’ll live with faith that we truly can and do reveal Abba.

Prophets People Called to Speak and Act
Generations of Faith 2022/23
Amos and Micah – Call for Justice
The next session of Generations of Faith on Sunday, February 26, 2023, will study the messages of the prophets Amos and Micah. They are considered Minor Prophets. Do you remember why? Is it because:
A. They began preaching before they turned 18?
B. Their writings are not as important as the Major Prophets like Isaiah?
C. Their Books in the Bible are shorter than the Major Prophets?
The correct answer is C! Amos and Micah are two of the twelve Minor Prophets whose books are significantly shorter than the 3 major prophets: Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel. But, there is nothing “minor” about the prophetic messages of Amos and Micah.
Come study these two prophets at the Generations of Faith Session on Sunday, February 26 after the 11 am Mass - 12:30 to 1:45 pm.
Place: Adults in the Rainbow Room
Teens in the Activity Center
Elementary Students in Rooms 3 & 4
Lunch (optional): 1:50 pm in the gym. Free will donation. Children eat free.

The Eucharist is being exposed on the altar in church on the following schedule:
Tuesdays: 6:00pm – 8:30pm
[Note: that’s a usual time for our neighborhood
Evangelization efforts so prayer support is appreciated!]
Thursdays: 9:15am – 12:15pm

Saturdays: 1:00pm – 3:15pm
[Note: Confessions 1:00 pm – 3:45pm]
One of the greatest treasures of the Catholic faith is the Eucharist. Ever since the Last Supper, the Catholic Church has believed that the Eucharist is truly the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ. You are invited to come and spend time in adoration with Jesus at Corpus Christi as we begin to offer these new time slots for adoration. Ideally, we will have two people in the church before Jesus whenever adoration happens. On our parish website you will see two slots for each time. Please know that if the slot is filled there will still be plenty of room in church for you!
You can go directly to the adoration sign-up by clicking on the following button:Adoration Sign-Up *** Please Check the Weekly Bulletin for Possible Changes ***
