Join Deacon Pat Comfort in learning about St. Peter Wednesdays at 7:00 p.m. in St. Michael Church Hall. Every Holy Year calls us to prayer, fasting, almsgiving, forgiveness and repentance, that we may be less attached to things of this world, and walk with greater resolution on our way to Christ and with Christ. We are encouraged to make a pilgrimage to a designated church as a sign of our inward pilgrimage. We are invited to enter the Holy Door, leaving our old life behind and entering a new, more joyful, more profound life with Christ and His Church. Sister Kathleen Dietz, FSO, vice chancellor of the Diocese, points out, With this extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy, Pope Francis reminds us that we are all sinners who depend on the mercy of God, that His mercy is for everyone, and that we are obliged as followers of Christ, to show mercy to others. We are being drawn into the mercy of God, Who loves us with unending and unspeakable love, and seeks always to draw us closer to Himself.

Family Perspective The words of Jesus in today s gospel, I have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear it now, could be said by any parent. It can be frustrating because our desire to guide is often misinterpreted or poorly received. We cannot program our children. We can only teach, lead and trust the Spirit of truth will guide them.
