October 19th: We'll begin with a parent portion at 6PM while teens have a pizza social and dodgeball/game night in our Social Hall. At 7:30, teens will be invited up to the church for their talk from Jason, while parents enjoy some time of appetizers, beverages and socializing in the social hall. At 9PM, all will be invited into a time of reflection and prayer as we bring in the Blessed Sacrament for a time of Eucharistic Adoration. Priests will also be available at this time to hear confessions. Join us in prayer!Join us as we pray for exactly who God wants to hear this message, to come to this event, and for it to sink in just as God has intended! We'll be celebrating Saint John Paul II's feast day on October 22nd, so please join us in praying a Novena, asking for his intercession! A Novena is a 9 day prayer, asking for the intercession of a particular Saint, leading up to their feast day, praying each day for a certain intention.
We'll begin this Novena on: Friday, October 14th. The Novena will then end on October 22, after our October 19 event, with the hope we can be praying before and after the event for all of the parents and teens attending. Click below for a link to this Novena! |
