Sunday, 10 November 2013: Luke 20:27-38 Lord, when your glory appears, may joy will be full. (Psalm 17) What is your vision of life and death? How does this vision affect your daily decisions/actions? Do you really believe that you shall live again after death? How has your decision been formed? How often to you share this hope with unbelieving co-worker? 327 Holy Hours were kept with Our Lord in Eucharistic Adoration last week. A sincere thank you goes out to all who helped to make the Pot Luck dinner a great night for everyone. We need help covering an hour on Sunday from 4 pm to 5 pm.
