Father Tom invites the men of our Together in Christ Family to attend the Christ Renews Welcome Men's Retreat in September:
To my fellow brothers in Christ:
For more than thirty years, St. Mary’s has hosted Welcome weekends/retreats here at our parish. When Jesus spoke to the woman at the well, he said, “If you knew the gift of God and who is saying to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked Him and He would have given you living water.” (John 4:10) The gift of God that is offered to the Samaritan woman and to us is to share in the very life of God himself. At the “Welcome” weekend/retreat, you will have an opportunity to drink more deeply from the living waters offered by Christ. Like the Samaritan woman, you will be inspired to live more fully in the Christian life yourself. You will also help lead others to the same fountain of life. I wish to personally invite you to join us on September 21-21 for this awesome, inspirational weekend of “Welcome,” renewal, and faith. I especially encourage the men who are new to our parish to come and join us. What a great way to meet other parishioners and share a common bond we call our Catholic faith! One simple “Yes” can make a tremendous difference in our lives and the lives of those dear to us. I am convinced that Christ Renews His Parish is one of the reasons for our parish’s warmth, generosity, and closeness. With your presence, “Welcome” will continue to be the Spirit driven difference in your life, your family, and in our family of parishes.
A.M.D.G.,
Fr. Tom
