We strive to follow the Way of St. Francis in committing to live the Gospel life. A life of the values of peace, justice and the loving embrace of all people. In the year 1221 St. Francis formed The Third Order of Penance Today we are called the Order of Franciscan Seculars or OFS. We are men and women who live in the secular world yet seek to follow St. Francis and live the Gospel life. Is God Calling YOU to the Secular Franciscan Order? For more info: JoAnne McNamara, OFS littlemac85008@yahoo.com (602) Visit our website: Examen of Consciousness St. Ignatius Loyola ( ), founder of the Society of Jesus, was a very practical man when it came to prayer. He recommended to his brothers a daily method of examining their lives so that they might better serve the Lord. St. Ignatius taught that the key to a healthy spirituality is twofold: find God in all things and constantly work to gain freedom to cooperate with God s will. Join us and discover this prayer form by Jesuits, priests, religious and laypeople around the world. Date: Wednesday, November 7, 2018 Time: 7:00 8:30 PM Location: Social Hall St. Mary s Basilica Website: smbphx.org/young-adults After the Noon Mass Facilitated by Roberto Duron Bible Study Sunday In the Diocesan Pastoral Center, Rm AM - Noon About the Gospel: Jesus tells us to love God above everything else and to love our neighbor as ourselves. The Ten Commandments can be condensed into this message of love. The first three commandments are about how we love God, and the rest about how we should treat each other. In Church: Pay attention carefully during Mass and try to find an example of loving God and loving others in Mass. Question of the Week: How does Jesus show you an example of how you can live out the great Commandment of loving God and neighbor? For More Information: Bro.
