FROM TODAY’S GOSPEL READING:
Jesus said to them, “Come, and you will see”.
REFLECTION:
Following Jesus takes a lifetime of listening, learning,
acting, and, when necessary, repenting. This period of
learning may be what John is suggesting when Jesus invites and promises the searchers, “Come and you will see”.
They go with the Teacher and stay with him and their lives
are forever changed.

SO WE ASK OURSELVES:
Has our search for God become stagnant, something fixed
in the past? What can we do to experience new energy and
meaning in our faith lives?
PLEASE PRAY TO SUPPORT THOSE IN NEED
PRAYER IS AN EASY AND POWERFUL ACTION!

RESTORATION ON THE EXTERIOR OF THE CHURCH
Significant work must be done on the exterior of our
Church. An inspection by the engineering firm of O’Donnell-Nacarotto, and mandated by the city has determined
that there are serious issues that must be addressed. We
are currently obtaining bids for this major project. The
work will begin in the Spring. Initial estimates are between
$250,000 and $300,000. Because of the sale of the School,
we will not have to take out a loan or have a special appeal.
