If you didn’t get one last weekend, Prayer Cards for the Jubilee Year are available at all church entrances. The Diocese has provided us with enough cards so that in addition to taking prayer cards for yourself, you can take some for friends or relatives who might not be able to attend church.

There will be a men’s retreat exploring the theme of hope at the Villa Madonna from March 14 – 16. Retreat is open to all men over the aged 19+. Information / registration: https://events.insogan.org/HIC or contact Mark Nagas (marknagas@gmail.com). Registration deadline is March 1.

The registration deadline is February 14. This retreat is open to everyone, for more information, contact Jim Anderson (janderson@dioceseofsaintjohn.org or 506-653-6809).
