SPECIAL LENTEN ACTIVITIES IN OUR S-7 FAMILY!
Lent is a special season in our spiritual lives. It is a time for us to repent from bad habits, to grow in discipline, knowledge of our faith and love of the Lord. It is also a time for almsgiving and service to our brothers and sisters in need. This Lent is also a time for Assumption parishioners to help all of our people in the S-7 Family of parishes to grow in community by praying, learning and receiving the Sacraments together.
For the most part, each parish will maintain its own schedule of Lenten activities this year. However, there are several special opportunities for us to grow by new spiritual exercises as a larger community of Catholics who will be united into one parish in the future. Members of all six parishes are invited to participate in these special activities:
On March 22, we will pray the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary together in Church at 7:00PM
On March 29, we will pray the Stations of the Cross together in Church at 7:00PM
Lent Confession-a-thon at Assumption: Instead of parish Lenten penance services, we will have an S-7 Family of Parishes Confession-a-thon at Assumption Church in Mt. Healthy, on Tuesday, March 28th, 4:00-7:00PM. –several priests hearing confessions for three hours, with the Blessed Sacrament exposed for adoration and beautiful Lenten music playing in the background.
