For the month of February we are asking for donations of men s and women s deodorant. Thank you! Chelsea Beauregard, Director COLLECTION FOR THE CHURCH IN LATIN AMERICA The family around the world today faces tremendous challenges. In Latin America, where Christian values remain important, many families are wounded by hostility from the surrounding environment and by broken relationships within the family. Yet throughout the hemisphere, the Church continues to point the way to Christ as the source of hope and healing. Many family and catechetical ministry projects funded by this Collection for the Church in Latin America, offer families and communities a way to strengthen, affirm, and celebrate their life together in faith, offering a different and hopeful vision of relationships with one another and with God. Please be generous to this Collection to be taken up next weekend, Sat., & Sun., Feb. 7th & 8th. CEMETERY NEWS At what age should I consider Preplanning? Adults of any age who make their own decisions should have a plan. Like your will, it can be revised throughout your life as needs change. The annual celebration of World Marriage Day is this Sun., Feb. 1st, at the 10:45 a.m. Mass at the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. A reception will follow in the Parish Hall. Everyone is welcome to this wonderful celebration of this very special day. Our sincerest congratulations and prayer for blessings on all our married couples. In general, the earlier you preplan the more options you have. Your cemetery and funeral options will probably never cost less than they do today. Peter Beauregard, Superintendent Mt.
