Views From The Pews
Every year I get bunches of compliments for The Healing Way of the Cross . Only difference this year : I got a lot more compliments than ever before . All were glowing . Angelique ’ s compliment is representative . Angelique writes , “ I cried from beginning to end . It was so beautiful . The words stirred my mind . The music moved my heart . It was the most moving thing I have experienced in a long , long time . Please give my thanks to everyone involved .”
“ Angelique , your thanks are extended to the three singers , Father Steve Bruno , Anna Jouandot and Lisa Oncale . Thanks also go to our three lectors : Deacon Jim Rooney , Deacon Jim Venturella and Deacon Venturella ’ s wife , Carmelitte .
By the way , most of the people who came also went to Confession and then stayed for the end of The Healing Way of the Cross . The ceremony ended approximately 9 pm and there were still close to 100 people in church .”
Mass & Stations
Fr . Mike
Every Friday Evening during Lent ( except Good Friday ) 5 p . m . - 8 p . m .
in the Cafeteria
Mass is celebrated at 6 p . m . every Friday evening during Lent . Stations of the Cross immediately follows Mass . This traditional journey to Calvary , using texts from Holy Scripture , has been a consolation and source of faith and grace to many . The Church grants to those who participate in the Way of the Cross a plenary indulgence .

Did You Know ?
It is not only permitted to have Masses said for Catholics , it is permitted and even encouraged for Masses to be celebrated for non-Catholic and even non-Christian friends , relatives and , yes , enemies . God ’ s graces go out to all .
To our soldiers …
