St. Mary Parish Family 4th Sunday of Lent March 26, 2017 Catholics across the Archdiocese are invited to pledge their support to the annual Catholic Appeal. If you were unable to make your pledge at Mass, please take a pledge form from the back of the church or pledge online at: bostoncatholicappeal.org. Thank you for your prayers for a successful Catholic Appeal. Hunger knows no season. The Knights of Columbus is asking for your support for this very important Food for Families program. During the Lenten season, we are asking each parishioner to contribute one can of food per day during the 40 days of Lent. Please bring your contribution to church and leave them at the back of the church. Members of Saint John Vianney will collect the cans after the 11:30am Sunday Mass. LIVING STATIONS OF THE CROSS GOOD FRIDAY AT 3:00pm in the Upper Church Please join us for this moving, contemporary presentation, as we reflect on the Passion of the Lord. At each station characters from history and modern times will testify how Jesus’ sufferings foreshadowed events in their own lives. Please come and bring your family and friends. This is a wonderful opportunity for people of all ages to reflect on the journey of Our Lord to the cross and how we might follow in his footsteps. Special “Easter Flower” envelopes are available at the back of the church for anyone to remember their loved ones on Easter. This will allow us to plan more effectively for our Easter décor.
