Healing from Abortion<br />
You are not alone in your search for healing from the trauma<br />
<strong>of</strong> abortion. There are several programs both locally and<br />
around the Archdiocese, for women and men, that can help<br />
start this process <strong>of</strong> healing. <strong>We</strong> have listed a few <strong>of</strong> these<br />
programs below w<strong>it</strong>h contact information and their webs<strong>it</strong>es<br />
for more information.<br />
Project Rachel is a post-abortive healing ministry <strong>of</strong><br />

been impacted by an abortion.<br />

CENACLE OF LIFE (A PRAYER GROUP FOR LIFE):<br />
St. Francis <strong>of</strong> Assisi Catholic Church has been participating<br />
in a national effort to end the culture <strong>of</strong> death<br />
(abortion, euthanasia, embryonic stem cell<br />
research, cloning, and assisted suicide), the<br />
Cenacle <strong>of</strong> Life. All who wish to participate are<br />
inv<strong>it</strong>ed to join us Thursday evenings from<br />
8-8:45 pm to pray two rosaries in front <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Blessed Sacrament. Members <strong>of</strong> the Cenacle are also asked<br />
to observe one day <strong>of</strong> fasting each we<strong>ek</strong> for this<br />
intention. Scripture tells us that certain evils can only be rooted<br />
out w<strong>it</strong>h prayer and fasting (see Mk 9:29). For more<br />
information, you can vis<strong>it</strong> cenacles<strong>of</strong>life.org. or call Mary<br />
Carey at 303-684-9304.<br />

Hello Everyone! During <strong>Lent</strong> we are asked to pray more<br />
which we all try to do. In last we<strong>ek</strong>'s bulletin the insert on the<br />
seven steps <strong>of</strong> prayer is excellent. Father Frank encouraged<br />
all <strong>of</strong> us to try these steps and I hope everyone is. What a<br />
wonderful guide for teaching us how to pray. The chapter on<br />
prayer in our <strong>Lent</strong>en book study is wonderful and we are<br />
learning so much in our discussion groups, plus an added<br />
bonus, we are getting to know more <strong>of</strong> our parish family.<br />
Thank You God for all <strong>of</strong> Your Blessings. <strong>We</strong> Love You!<br />
Love and Prayers, Stewardship Council<br />
